Solve the problem using 6.2%, up to $128,400 for Social Security tax and using 1.45%, no wage limit, for Medicare tax.

bekas [8.4K]

$3878.55

Explanation:

Step 1 :

It is given that Kristy has a biweekly gross earnings of $1950.

Since it is bi-weekly payments there are 26 payments in the year.

Gross earnings per year = 1950 * 26 = $50,700

Step 2 :

It is given that the social security tax is 6.2% up to $128,400. Kristy's earnings of 50,700$ does not exceed the threshold $128,400, hence 6.2% of her entire income is subject to social security withholding.

Social security withholding = 6.2% of 50,700 = 6.2*50700/100 = $3143.40

Step 3 :

It is given that Medicare tax is 1.45% with no wage limit

Medicare withholding = 1.45% of 50,700 = 1.45*50700/100 = $735.15

Total withholding = Social Security withholding + Medicare withholding 3143.40 + 735.15 = $3878.55

Exercise 19-08 a-b Oriole Corporation incurred the following costs while manufacturing its product.

telo118 [61]

Answer:

$371,700

Explanation:

The computation of the cost of goods sold is shown below:

Cost of goods manufactured = Direct materials used + Direct labor cost + Manufacturing overhead cost + beginning work in process inventory - ending work in process inventory

where,

Manufacturing overhead cost is

= Depreciation on plant + Factory supplies used + Property tax on plant

= $61,000 + $29,300 + $21,800

= $112,100

The cost of goods manufactured is

= $126,400 + $113,500 + $112,100 + $14,600 - $16,700

= $349,900

Now the cost of goods sold is

= Beginning finished goods + Cost of goods manufactured - ending finished goods

= $70,900 + $349,900 - $49,100

= $371,700
