Answer:
1. $714.798
2. $66.402
3. $141.484
Explanation:
1. Gross pay = 62 hours worked x $14.00 per hour
= $868
Net paycheck = Gross pay - Tax
= 868 - [(868) x (6.2%+1.45%+10%)
= $868 - $153.202
= $714.798
2. Employer's payroll tax expense = (6.2%+1.45%) x 868
= $66.402
3. Jim's employer's total payroll tax liability for the period.
868*6.2% (FICA taxes - Employee) + 868*6.2% (FICA taxes - Employer's share) + 868*1.45% (Medicare taxes - Employee) + 868*1.45% (Medicare taxes - Employer's share) + 868*10% (Withholding tax).
= 53.816 + 53.816 + 12.586 + 12.586 + 8.68
Total = $141.484

Answer:
Inelastic
Explanation:
Price Elasticity of demand is the a measure which is used to show the responsiveness of the quantity to its price.
Price Elasticity of demand = Change in quantity / Change in price
% Change in quantity = ( 45,000 - 35,000 ) / 45,000 = 22.22%
% Change in price = ( 20 - 30 ) / 20 = -50%
Price Elasticity of demand = Change in quantity / Change in price
Price Elasticity of demand = 22.22% / -50% = -0.4444
As the answer is less than 1 so, demand is Inelastic.
