I really dont no what your question is or your options but if you are trying to see how much is taken out per year you take $118,500 × 6.2%+1.45% and its a little over $7,347.01, and if you are trying to solve per pay check same thing but use 3,000 not 118,500 which is $186.01 taken out

Answer:

$31.00

Explanation:

Jay Ward  has cumulative earnings of $118,000 it means he has already been taxed on his earning on $118,000.

Difference  = $118,500 - $118,000

                   = $500

So on this paycheck only $2,500 of his earnings are taxable for social security tax.

Social security tax rate = 6.2%

Social security tax amount = 6.2% × 500

                                            = 0.062 × 500

                                            = $31

Therefore, the total amount of Social Security tax for this week is $31.00.

kykrilka [37]

Answer:

“Should” or “should not” depend on the cost rate of the option and the risk appetite of investors.

Explanation:

An option is a contract that allows investors to buy or sell instruments such as security, Exchanged Traded Fund or an index at a pre-determined price over a certain period of time.

If the option will cost the investor an additional $10,000 and it is the cost for an option of $10 million investment, then it cost only 0.1% additionally, but it can secure the position of this investment; then the investor should buy this option.

Vice versa, if the additional $10,000 is much more than expected profit, and even lower but significantly drop down the total profit of an investment; and the investor always wish to have a high profit regardless high risk; then he shouldn’t buy this option.
