I'm working on a payroll sheet that will automatically list the correct
Federal Income Tax assessed based on the employee's Marital status-Single
or
Married, the claimed dependents, and the gross income. I have three
sheets.
The first sheet shows the marital status and the gross income. The other
two
sheets (one for married and the other for single) gives a chart where the
possible depents claimed are in columns and there is a range of incomes
like
More than 500 in column A row 6, but less than 510 in column B row 6. The
cell intersection of claimed dependents with the row of appropriate limits
is
the money value that needs to go in the Federal Tax Column for the
employee.
How can I correlate the data to do that automatically.
Thank You.
