Question

John Zimmerman is a single person with 1 exemptions. In a week, he earns $234.89.

Using the chart above, John's federal income tax withholding is _____.

36.10
38.30
39.30
41.60

Answer 1

41.60

Step-by-step explanation:

As John Zimerman is a single person, but has 1 exemption, this means that he probably is economically dependant on his parents, or is still living at his parents house since someone else is paying taxes in his household as well, he lands in the 4th tab 230-240, and in the column of 1 exemption which means that he wil have 41.60 dollar withheld from his paycheck.

Answer 2

41.60 is the correct answer.

As 234.89 is between 230-240, one would use that line of the chart. Since the facts presented indicate that he has 1 exemption, the correct answer is 41.60, as indicated on the chart.
