Earlier in the year you completed a Career Interest Inventory and picked a career from the list that was provided for you. Now it is time to do more career research!

This is the information that I want from you:

• Title of Career
• Years of Education Required
• Beginning (Low End) Gross Yearly Salary
• Bi-Weekly Gross Income (take your salary and divide by 26)
• Federal Taxes (go here for tax schedule)
  
• Social Security Taxes (you will pay 7.65% for SS taxes)
  

If you do not remember the career that you chose, ask me. I have a list. You need to go to http://www.salary.com and search for the salary that coincides with your chosen career. You will need to search using the career title and our zip code. These linked websites should tell you all you need to know for this assignment.

Type this in MSExcel and email the assignment to me. Save this as Personal Budget in YOUR FOLDER because you will be using this worksheet again tomorrow.
