Answer:

5

Explanation:

The deposit multiplier or money multiplier is calculated by dividing 1 by the reserve ratio.

Money multiplier = 1 / 0.2 = 5

The money multiplier refers to the capacity that banks have to create money.

For example, I deposit $10,000 into my savings account and the reserve ratio is 20%. The bank then loans $8,000 to my neighbor so that he can buy a new bike. The bike's seller will then deposit the $8,000 to his/her bank. The seller's bank will then loan $6,400 to another client that purchases something else. The seller of that something else will then deposit the money into their bank, and the story goes on and on.

All of those transaction were possible because I deposited $10,000 and the banking system created money by multiplying my deposit.

In April of the current year, Steelman Press Company transferred Ken Sherm from its factory in Louisiana to its plant in Florida
Verdich [7]

Answer:

A) $158.40

B) $77.90

C) $42

Explanation:

The question is to determine the tax figures for both the State Unemployment Tax Act (SUTA) for Louisiana and Florida and the net Federal Unemployment Tax Act (FUTA) on Sherm's wages.

A) Amount of SUTA tax the company must pay to Louisiana on Sherm's wages

Out of the $14,190 wages of Sherm for the year, $4,950 was paid in Louisiana

Meaning the State SUTA tax in Louisiana = $4,950 x the tax rate for SUTA in Louisiana = 3.2%

= $4,950 x 3.2% = $158.40

B) Amount of SUTA tax the company must pay to Florida on Sherm's wages

Out of $14,190, $4,950 was paid in Louisiana meaning (14,190 - 4,950) = 9,240 was paid in Florida

However, the taxable wage limit is $7,000

threefore, SUTA in Florida = ($7,000-$4950 x 3.8%

= $77.90

C) Amount of the net FUTA tax on Sherm's wages

Using the same taxable wage limit of $7,000

FUTA tax = $7,000 x 0.6% = $42
