Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You want an estimate of Ashley's full Social Security benefit at age 67 if she has average adjusted earnings of $3780 per month.
Multiply the first $1,115 by 90%:
$1,115 × 0.90 = $1003.50 . . . . blank 1
Multiply the amount over $1,115 and less than or equal to $6,721 by 32%:
($3780 -1115) × 0.32 = $852.80 . . . . blank 2
Multiply the amount over $6,721 by 15%.
The amount 3780 is not over 6721, so this amount is 0.
$0 × 0.15 = $0 . . . . blank 3
Add the results from a, b, and c. Round DOWN:
$1003.50 +852.80 +0 = $1856.30, rounds to $1856 . . . . blank 4
