dlinn [17]

Answer:

1. Overtime= $1,000

2. Gross Pay= $10,000

3. State Income Taxes = $400

4. Total Deductions= $2,483

5/ Salaries and wages expenses = $10,000 (Gross Pay)

Explanation:

The question says to find the following:

1. Overtime

2. Total

3. State Income Taxes

4. Total Deductions

5. Salaries and Wages Expense

1. Overtime

Overtime is derived after calculating the total Gross Pay (2nd question)

Total Gross Pay= Regular + Overtime

$10,000= $9,000 + Overtime

Therefore, Overtime = $10,000-$9,000

Overtime= $1,000

2. Total Gross Pay (this should be treated before the 1st which is overtime)

= Gross Pay =

= calculated as FICA tax expense /the percentage of FICA taxes

FICA tax expense = $765

% of FICA taxes = 7.65

Gross Pay= $765 / 7.65% (0.0765)

= $10,000

3. State Income Tax

The state Income Taxes is derived as follows

Gross Pay x the given percentage (4%)

State Income taxes = $10,000 x 0.04

State Income taxes = $400

4. Calculate the total deductions

Total Deductions are the sum of the following

FICA taxes + federal Income taxes + State Income taxes + Union dues

= $765+ $1,128+$400+$190

= $2,483

5. Salaries and Wages Expense

The answer to this is simply the derived total gross pay (regular + overtime) Calculated in step 2

Gross pay= salaries and wages expense= $10,000

. Intellus has long-term debt of $5 million, owners' equity of $7.5 million, current assets of $1 million, gross fixed assets of

stich3 [128]

Answer:

- $0.5 million

Explanation:

The computation of the net working capital is shown below:

We know that

Net working capital = Current assets - current liabilities

where,

Current assets = $1 million

The net fixed assets = Gross fixed assets - Accumulated depreciation

= $20 million - $7 million

= $13 million

Total assets = Current assets + net fixed assets

= $1 million + $13 million

= $14 million

And,

Total assets = Total liabilities + owners equity

$14 million = Total liabilities + $7.5 million

So, the total liabilities is

= $14 million - $7.5 million

= $6.5 million

Total liabilities = Current liabilities + long term debt

$6.5 million = Current liabilities + $5 million

So, Current liabilities is $1.5 million

Now the net working capital equal to

= $1 million - $1.5 million

= - $0.5 million
