    F. 47,499 - 46,700 does not equal 941.

    Everything else is right.

    This is what happens when you just grab an answer from someone on here, plop it into your problem, assume it's correct, and don't bother to check anything for yourself. I see now the information you presented in your other post was incorrect, so you therefore got an incorrect answer.

    Always check over your own work and never just insert an answer someone else gave you like that. Hopefully a lesson learned?
