Answer:
$19,790
Explanation:
A taxpayer’s tax base for computing a self-employed taxpayer’s self-employment tax (i.e., net earnings from self-employment) is the taxpayer’s net business profit from Schedule C multiplied by 92.35%.
So, Alice’s net earnings from self-employment is her net profit from Schedule C of $150,000 x 92.35% = $138,525.
Alice will owe $15,773 ($127,200 maximum amount x 12.4%) in Social Security taxes and $4,017 ($138,525 x 2.9%) for the Medicare component of FICA taxes.
Alice owes total self-employment tax of $19,790 ($15,773 + $4,017).
She is not subject to additional Medicare tax because her net earnings from self-employment do not exceed $200,000.
Answer:
<u></u>
- <u>1. The slope is negative</u>
- <u>2. The demand decreases when the prices increase.</u>
Explanation:
<em>Describe the slope of the demand curve?</em>
<em>The slope of the demand curve</em> is negative.
The demand curve is graphed on a coordinate plane with the price in the horizontal axis (typically the x-axis) and the demand on the vertical axis (y-axis).
Thus, the slope will be the rate of change of the demand over the change on the price.
Mathematically:

Since, as you move from left to right, on the x-axis, the prices increase, and the demand (on the y-axis) lowers, the change in demand is negative and the change in the prices is positive, resulting in a negative slope.
This is seen graphycally because the demand curve is decreasing (downward-sloping).
<em>How does the slope reflect the law of demand?</em>
The slope reflects perfectly <em>the law of demand</em> because the law of demand states that, since the resources are scarce, when the prices incrases the quantities demanded decrease.
Answer:
b. quasi contract
Explanation:
-Liquidated damages refers to a mechanism in a contract in which a party can request a compensation because of breach.
-Quasi contract is an agreement that is recognised by a court when there is no written contract between two parties and there is a conflict about a payment of a product or service.

-Restitution is when someone receives a compensation for a loss or an injury.
According to the options given and the definitions, the answer is quasi contract.

According to the CAPM, what is the market risk premium given an expected return on a security of 13.6%, a stock beta of 1.2, and a risk-free interest rate of 4%?
Answer:
8%
Explanation:
The expected return on security is 13.6%
The stock beta is 1.2
The risk free interest rate is 1.4
Therefore, using the CAMP , the market risk premium can be calculated as follows
13.6%= 4% + 1.2×MRP
13.6%-4%= 1.2MRP
9.6%=1.2MRP
MRP= 9.6/1.2
MRP= 8%
Hence the market risk premium is 8%
Answer:
c) $ 24,200
Explanation:
Computation of Total Period costs
Fixed selling and Administrative expenses $ 8,800
Variable Selling and Administrative costs
$ 7 per unit * 2,200 units sold <u>$ 15,400</u>
Total period costs $ 24,200
The fixed manufacturing overhead is part of manufacturing costs so not considered.
The variable selling and administrative costs are based on units sold and not units produced.
