It depends on your "withholdings".

Single 1, or married 2, 3, 5.

Check with your employer, they have a worksheet for you to complete. If you are an employer trying to figure how much you must withhold from your employees, see Publication 15:

and the updated tables in Publication 15-T:

If you just want to see how much will be deducted from your own pay, you can use the following calculator to determine how much tax will be deducted from your paycheck:

Remember that the amount of income tax deducted depends on how you fill out Form W-4 that you give to your employer. Properly doing so, and using the accompanying worksheets, is the best way to assure the right amount is withheld. IT IS NOT A FIXED OR SPECIFIC AMOUNT - YOU CONTROL IT...It is not the real amount of tax you owe. The real amount is calculated when you fill out your tax return at the end of the year. When you fill out and file your tax return, you will get a refund if too much was deducted or you will pay more if not enough was deducted. You want to have an amount paid in close to what you owe....and of course...any two people, even at the same job and salary, rarely have the sam tax situation and actually pay the same tax. And also remember....many, many things may be withheld that are not taxes or are only if you consider them that!

The answer to this depends on what state is involved, why there has to be any "pay back" (i.e., misrepresentation or ?) in the first place, etc. And as to the taxes not taken out, whether there is a tax liability depends on other tax issues such as deductions, dependents, etc. Check with a tax preparer for clarification.

168, just multiply them together. But you've got to subtract tax from the check, which is tougher to figure out. For me the tax taken out of the check is one-fifth of the whole thing, so maybe a little more than 30 dollars taken out for you.
