Answer:

From the information provided

Federal rate tax of earnings = 30000 × 0.6%

= 30000 × 0.006

= 180

State rate tax of earnings = 30000 × 5.4%

= 30000 × 0.054

= 1620

Medicare taxes = 2625

Social security taxes = 10500

Total payroll tax expenses = Medicare taxes + social security taxes + state rate tax on earnings + federal rate tax on earnings

= 10500 + 2625 + 180 +1620

= $ 14925

THUS,

il63 [147K]
Well if the muslims have any trade with us then that will most likely stop. most could be kicked out and that could start a riat. the economy would be bad but it will not be any worse than what he started with. he have been in the office for less than a week now and has already hit isis countless times. something obama never did. i would say trump's ban on muslims would cause a minor effect on the economy.
