Answer:
His sales that week were $2,160.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you have to subtract $324 from the amount he earned that week, to find the 5% he got from sales:
$432-$324=$108
Now, you know that he received $108 that represent 5% of his sales and you can use a rule of three to find the amount that represents 100% which would be his sales that week:
5% → 108
100% → x
x=(100*108)/5=2160
According to this, the answer is that his sales that week were $2,160.
Answer:
It travels for 2 hours, then stops for 1 hour, and finally travels again for 5 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
The Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA) is made up of
two items, Social Security and Medicare taxes. For 2016, the Social Security
tax rate is 6.2% on the first $118,500 wages paid. The Medicare tax rate is
1.45% on the first $200,000 and 2.35% above $200,000. Since the total earnings is
only $110,700 which is not yet taxable. So there is no taxable earnings yet.
