Weekend HW #52

  1. Write a paragraph detailing a job or career you could see yourself doing as an adult and why. (Please refrain from a sports or entertainment career, even if that's your goal pick a back up in case that doesn't work out).
  2. Discuss a reasonable salary that you would expect to receive from this career choice. (IE first year teachers w a bachelor's degree get paid approx. $42,000 annually. Accountants without a CPA b/w $38,000 and $50,000 depending on their experience).
  3. From this salary subtract a 33% tax rate (multiply the annual salary by .33 and then subtract this amount from the original salary).
  4. Lastly, discuss your understanding of taxes and the implications of taxes on your income.

This should be neatly written or typed with your name and date on the top.
