GROSS AND NET.

MY GROSS SALARY: $150,000.
Assuming that I get paid monthly, I would get $12,500 a month. The federal tax is 28% for $142,700-$217,450, and I fall into that category so that means I would subtract $3,500 which equals $9,000 a month. Plus, Utah requires us to pay state tax, which is 5%. That takes out another $625 every month, which brings it down to $8,375 a month. Then when you take out social security, which is 6.2%. That brings me down to 7,600 a month. And lastly, Medicare costs 1.45 % which brings me down to $7443.75 a month. And if you multiply that by 12....I will have $89,325 as my net.

MY NET: $89,325

October on to NOVEMBER. (20%)

Time is definitely going by so fast this semester. For October, we have made posters to go by the bins in the commons and posters with facts on them that will hopefully make students realize what they would be doing and what they would be helping if they recycle. So November we are planning on getting the bins out to see if we get good results. If so we will make a plan on how we are going to get the plastic over to the recycling place. We are going to get some of our posters hung up and have some facts on recycling in the announcements. I think our biggest challenge will be to find a way to make as many students as we can to join in our efforts. It will take effort on our part to find ways to encourage the students.
