His net pay is $328.16.
The first step is to calculate Jerome’s salary.
Regular time - 40 x $7.80 = $312
Overtime - 5 x $7.80 x 1.5 = $58.50
Total Salary = $312 + 58.50 = $370.50
The next step is to calculate the deductions:
Social security = 370.50 x .062 = $22.97
Medicare = 370.50 x .0145 = $5.37
Federal Income Tax = $14
Total Deductions = 22.97 + 5.37 + 14 = $42.34
$370.50 - $42.34 = $328.16
Answer:
MPC = 0.4
Explanation:
Multiplier shows change in income due to change (increase) in investment, or change (decrease) in tax. It is calculated by Marginal Propensity to Consume, as follows -
Multiplier ie k = Δ Income / Δ (govt investment or tax) = 1 / (1 - MPC)
Given : ΔG ie tax fall = 60 ; Targeted income rise = Full employment - actual output = 2000 - 1900 = 100
k = ΔY / ΔG = 100 / 60 = 1.67
k = 1 / (1 - MPC) → 1 - MPC = 1 / k → 1 - MPC = 1 / 1.67 → 1 - MPC = 0.6
MPC = 1 - 0.6 → MPC = 0.4
I believe it’s False, it might be wrong though
Answer:
In real dollars, Babe Ruth's salary = $80,000 / 0.0645 (CPI 1930) = $1,240,000
Since Babe Ruth was the highest paid baseball player back then, if we compare his updated salary to Kershaw's salary, it represents only = $1,240,000 / $33,000,000 = 3.76%.
That means that most of the players' salary raise was due to other factors, not just inflation.
