Final answer:
A) Allie's biweekly gross pay is $2,922.77. B) The total amount withheld for federal tax from Allie's annual salary is $8,358.04.
Step-by-step explanation:
The student's question deals with calculating Allie's biweekly gross pay and the total amount withheld for federal tax from her annual salary.
a) To find Allie's biweekly gross pay, we can divide her annual salary by the number of weeks in a year. Since she is paid every other week, there are 52 weeks in a year, so her biweekly gross pay is $75,964 / 26 = $2,922.77.
b) To calculate the total amount withheld for federal tax from Allie's annual salary, we can multiply her salary by the percentage of federal withholding tax. In this case, the withholding tax is 11%, so the total amount withheld for federal tax is $75,964 * 0.11 = $8,358.04.
