Answer 1

The correct answer is Riverside will pay FUTA - $420 and SUTA - $336. Harrison will pay FUTA - $420 and SUTA - $408.

When completing this question it is important to know that the FUTA tax rate for 2019 is 6% on the first $7,000 of earnings each year.

Riverside Country Club will pay FUTA at 6% of $7,000 and SUTA of 4.2% of $8,000.

FUTA = $420

SUTA = $336

Harrison Furniture Company will pay FUTA at 6% of $7,000 and SUTA of 5.1% of $8,000.

FUTA = $420

SUTA = $408
