Justin Matthews is a waiter at the Duluxe Lounge. In his first weekly pay in March, he earned $300.00 for the 40 hours he worked. In addition, he reports his tips for February to his employer ($500.00), and the employer withholds the appropriate taxes for the tips from this first pay in March.

Calculate his net take-home pay assuming the employer withheld federal income tax (wage-bracket, head of household), social security taxes, and state income tax (1%).

Enter deductions beginning with a minus sign (-). Round interim amounts to two decimal places. Use these values in subsequent computations then round final answer to two decimal places.
