Explanation:

1. under "Current" it says $1600/week.

it has to be $1600 per 2 weeks.

2. under job title and pay rate it says "annual $83200". but the year has 52 weeks. and 800×52 is $41600.

3. under before tax deductions we have $35 and $125. but the total of $150 is wrong. 35 + 125 = $160.

4. net pay is not correct. net pay is gross income minus all deductions. that has to include also before tax deductions.

so, we need to calculate

1600 - 160 - 378.41 = $1,061.59
