Answer:
- Federal Income tax ⇒ $80
- FICA ⇒ $125.46
- State income tax ⇒ $52.97
- Local deduction - Clark County Income tax ⇒ $29.52
Explanation:
Brent gets paid semi-monthly so his pay per period is:
= 39,360 / (12 months *2)
= $1,640
Based on the table therefore, his federal tax is:
= $80
This figure is based on the intersection between income of $1,640 and 3 withholding allowances.
FICA tax rate is 7.65% so his FICA tax is:
= 1,640 * 7.65%
= $125.46
State income tax = $52.97
Local deduction - Clark County Income tax = $29.52
Total deductions:
= Federal tax + FICA + State income tax + Clark County income tax
= 80 + 125.46 + 52.97 + 29.52
= $287.95
Answer:
Quantity of oil bought & sold would depend upon relative change i.e increase & decrease in demand & supply respectively.
- ↑Dd = ↓Sy : Qty same
- ↑Dd > ↓Sy : Qty ↑
- ↑Dd < ↓Sy : Qty ↓
Explanation:
Libya is an exporter of Oil to China. It implies china's demand for oil is satisfied by Libya's imports.
Usual markets are at equilibrium when market demand = market supply, demand & supply curves intersect.
Political unrest in Libya decreasing oil production, would decrease supply (exported) of oil to China & sift supply curve leftwards. Simultaneously, increase in China demand for oil would shift the demand curve rightwards. These changes in demand, supply would create excess demand. Excess demand would cause competition among buyers & increase the new equilibrium price.
However, <u>Quantity </u>of oil bought & sold would depend upon relative change , shift in demand & supply. If increase in demand is equal to decrease in supply, the quantity would remain<u> same.</u> If increase in demand is more than decrease in supply, quantity will <u>increase</u>. If increase in demand is less than decrease in supply, the quantity will <u>decrease.</u>

Answer:
The price level and GDP will fall.
Explanation:
A decline in money supply will increase the interest rate, as a result the investment will decline. This will cause production to decrease. An increase in tax will cause the cost of production to increase, reducing the supply. The taxes will decrease the disposable income, further reduing demand and cnsumption. A pessimistic expectation of business will also cause production to decline.
A rise in the value of dollars will make exports expensive, reducing exports. All of this will cause the GDP and price level to decline.
