Answer
Explanation:
Step1: Calculate semimonthly income
Semimonthly means 24 pay - periods in a year. So semimonthly income $=\frac{45408}{24}=1892$.
Step2: Calculate Bo's deduction
Bo's deduction is 6% of his semimonthly income. So Bo's deduction $=0.06\times1892 = 113.52$.
Step3: Calculate employer's match
Employer matches up to 3% of his semimonthly income. So employer's match $=0.03\times1892=56.76$.
Step4: Calculate total deposit
Total deposit into 403(b) each payday = Bo's deduction+ employer's match $=113.52 + 56.76=170.28$.
Answer:
$170.28$
