We group together the deductions that Rose would incur for the week.

Federal income tax = $48

Social security tax = (0.062) ($426) = $26.412

Medicare taxes = (0.0145) ($426) = $6.177

Insurance premiums = $45.80

Union dues = $12.56

The total of these deductions is $138.949.

Then, we subtract the total deductions from the gross pay to compute for the net pay.

Net pay = ($426) - ($138.949)

Net pay = $287. 051
