Sorry for not explaining my work, in a bit of a hurry. I had this question back when i was in school.
Hope this helps & good luck. :)
Weekly salary = [tex]40\times10.25=410[/tex]
Deductions are as follows:
FICA = 7.65% , amount becomes [tex]0.0765\times410=31.365[/tex]
Federal withholding = [tex]0.15\times410=61.5[/tex]
State withholding = [tex]0.10\times410=41[/tex]
Hence, total deductions are = [tex]31.365+61.5+41=133.865[/tex]
Daily transportation and lunch costs [tex]5.25+3.85=9.1[/tex] per day
Weekly expense for food and transportation = [tex]9.1\times5=45.5[/tex]
Cost of black slacks = $19.95
So, total expenses including deductions are = [tex]133.865+45.50+19.95=199.315[/tex]
Now, the weekly discretionary income is =[tex]410-199.315[/tex] = $210.685 β $210.69
Hence, the answer is $210.69.
