    Answer: Gross pay - $1750.00

    Net pay - $1,215.75

    Explanation: Gross pay = Nomal time = $28*40 = $1,120. Overtime = $28*1.5*15 = $630 Total = $1,750

    Net pay = $1,750 less Security tax, Medicare tax, federal income tax withheld.

    $1750 * 6.0% = $105

    $1750 * 1.5% = $26.25

    Tax withheld = $403

    Net pay = $1,750-$105-$26.25-$403

    = $1,215.75
