    Please read the following announcement.

    We won't do your homework for you, but we will check it and give you guidance. If you will start with a spreadsheet laid out as follows:

    Down the left side, list the employees.

    Across columns, list the wages for November, payroll withholdings, employee paid taxes, and net pay - that will be a start. It will get you to their net pay. Payroll taxes owed by the employer will be a separate entry. If you'll do that and come back, I'll check it for you and see if you need any explanation. Thanks.
