Answer: Uneven Development

Explanation:

South Korea is one of the success stories of the last century. After the Korean War devastated large parts of the Korean peninsula, foreign aid poured in and the people embraced development fully. This led to the development of large corporations such as Samsung making vast amounts of money and giving everyone there a high standard of living.

Guatemala on the other hand has been ravaged by poverty and poor living conditions for a long time resulting from a bloody civil war that lasted for decades. This led to gangs been formed to compete for resources as well as illegal activities being carried out such as drug trafficking. This only made things worse.

These are 2 countries are a prime example of how countries in the world are experiencing Uneven Development. How in one nation the standards of living are high and people are safer but on the same planet and in another nation people are living in abject poverty and fearing constantly for their lives.

zysi [14]
Given:
130,500 net pay to employees
  19,000 income tax withholding
    5,000 FICA withholding

130,500 + 19,000 + 5,000 + 5,000 = 159,500

<span>The total wages and payroll tax expense to the company for this pay period, excluding any unemployment taxes, is $159,500.
</span>
The 5,000 is added twice because the first 5,000 is withheld from the employees salary as the employees share. The employer also has to pay off 5,000 as employer's share to the employee's FICA withholding. Thus, the presence of the 2nd 5,000. 

FICA, <span> Federal Insurance Contributions Act,</span> is composed of
1) <span>6.2 % Social Security tax;
2) <span>1.45 % Medicare tax (the “regular” Medicare tax); and
3) 0.9 % of a Medicare surtax starting 2013 for employees earning over $200,000.
