Calculate Federal (Wage-Bracket Method - Pre-2020 Form W-4), State, and Local Income Tax Withholding

Then calculate both the state income tax withholding (assuming a state tax rate of 5.0% of taxable pay, with taxable pay being the same for federal and state income tax withholding), and the local income tax withholding. Refer to Publication 15-T. NOTE: For simplicity, all calculations throughout this exercise, both intermediate and final, should be rounded to two decimal places at each calculation.

Federal income tax withholding = $ State income tax withholding = $ Local income tax withholding = $
