Workings:

Normal hours = 40

Number of hours worked = 45

Overtime hours = Number or hours worked - Normal hours = 45 - 40 = 5

Normal hourly wage rate = $20

Overtime hourly rate = $30

Federal income tax withholding = $94

w.1: Normal wage amount = Normal hours * Normal wage rate = 40 * $20 = $800

w.2: Overtime pay = Overtime hours * Overtime hourly rate = 5 * $30 = $150

w.3: Wages expense = Normal wage amount + Overtime pay = $800 + $150 = $950

w.4: Wages payable = Total wage amount - Federal income tax withholding = $950 - $94 = $856
