Answer:

withheld from employee pay.

Step-by-step explanation:

The term withheld means that the employer deducts the taxes from the employee's pay when processing the payroll. By withholding, the money meant for taxes will not get to the employees' accounts.

The employee's gross pay is $1,106. 45. the next pay is $888.41. the employer must have made some deductions that have reduced the net pay to $888.41. These deductions are the tax amounts that have been withheld by the employer.
