Damien Carranza is a nonexempt employee of Verdant Enterprises where he is a salesperson, earning a base annual salary of $31,75

Allushta [10]

Answer:

Damien Carranza

Gross pay = $1.494.17

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Base annual salary = $31,750

Weekly base hours = 40 hours

We assume that there are 52 weeks in a calendar year.

Hourly rate = $31,750/(52 weeks * 40 hours) = $15.26442 per hour

Overtime worked = 4 hours

Overtime rate = 4 * $31,750/2,080 * 1.5 = $91.59

Weekly base pay = 40 * $31,750/2,080 = 610.58

Commission = $26,400 * 3% = 792.00

Gross pay = $1,494.17

b) Since Damien is a non-exempt employee, he is entitled to earn the federal minimum wage and qualify for overtime pay. This is calculated as one-and-a-half times his hourly rate, for every hour worked above and beyond the standard 40-hour workweek. The gross pay is Damien's total earnings throughout the week before deductions for mandated taxes, health insurance, retirement, and Medicare contributions are made.

Suppose a stock had an initial price of $117 per share, paid a dividend of $3.10 per share during the year, and had an ending sh

bonufazy [111]

Answer:

The correct answer for option (a) is 28.29% and for option (B) is 2.65%.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the given data are as follows:

Initial price = $117

Ending price = $147

Dividend = $3.10

(a) We can calculate the Total return percentage by using following formula:

Total return percentage = ( Ending Price - Initial Price + Dividend) ÷ Initial Price

By putting the value, we get

Total return percentage = ( $147 - $117 + $3.10) ÷ ( $117)

= 28.29% (approx).

(b). we can calculate the dividend yield by using following formula:

Dividend Yield = Dividend ÷ Initial Price

By putting the value, we get

Dividend Yield = $3.10 ÷ $117

= 2.65%

Given the following data for the economy, compute the value of GDP.

oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

The value of GDP is 75

Explanation:

GDP is equal to Consumption + Investment + Government Spending + Net Exports (Exports minus Imports), where total Investment is equal to Fixed Investment plus the Change in Inventories.

The change in GDP will therefore equal the change in Consumption + the change in Investment + the change in Government Spending + the change in Net Exports, where the change in Investment will equal the change in Fixed Investment plus the change in the Change in Inventories.

= Government purchases of goods and services (10) + Consumption Expenditures (70 )+ Exports (5 ) - Imports (12) + Change in Inventories (-7 ) + Construction of new homes and apartments (15 ) - Sales of existing homes and apartments (22 ) + Government payments to retirees (17 ) + Business Fixed Investment (9)

= 75
