How each Arkansas line is calculated

Arkansas employee paystubs in this app automatically show a single Arkansas State Income Tax line. Texarkana-specific withholding treatment is not yet modeled separately. Arkansas unemployment insurance and its administrative assessment are employer-side calculator lines.
