Dear Chet, This is all that you will have forgoten for chapter one selection. you will probly have forgoten that you will have to know your percents and how to do them. you will also have to know what gross pay and net pay and how to figure them out. You will also have to know how to figure out how to keep time cards and do pay roll duductions. look over all of the explorations (1-8) before the EXAM. so that you can do good. and pass. You should get to know the deductions because you probly forgot them. you should also remember the net pay percent deduction, 30% for income tax, 4% for CPP, and 2.5% for EI.
