Radda [10]

Answer:

The total payroll tax expenses is   $3139.5

See the prepared journal in the explanation below.

Explanation:

Before it is presented on a general journal, the calculation is done below;

1. Payroll tax expenses:

FICA Social Security taxes = 6.2% * 2300 * 10

                                             = 0.062 * 2300 * 10

                                            = $1,426

FICA Medicare taxes  =  1.45% * 2300 * 10

                                    = 0.0145 * 2300 * 10

                                    = $333.5

FUTA taxes  =  0.6% * 2300 * 10

                      = 0.006 * 2300 * 10

                    =$138

SUTA taxes = 5.4% * 2300 * 10

                    = 0.054 * 2300 *10

                    = $1242

Total payroll tax expenses = $1,426 + $333.5 + $138 + $1242

                                             = $3139.5

Date         General Journal                             Debit            Credit

1. Suppose you borrow money at a nominal interest rate of 14%. At the time you borrow the money, you expect inflation to be 8%.
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

1) 6% , 2) 5% , 3) As inflation rate ise higher than expected inflation rate, real interest rate would be lower than expected real interest rate

Explanation:

Real Interest Rate is the interest rate, which accounts for the impact of inflation.

Real Interest Rate = Nominal Interest Rate - Inflation

1) 14% - 8% = 6%

2) 14% - 9% = 5%

3) In case of variation in expected & actual inflation rate

1 + nominal interest rate = (1 + real interest rate) (1 + expected inflation rate)

1 + 14% = (1 + r) (1 + 3%)

1.14 = (1 + r) (1.03)

1.14 = 1.03 + 1.03r

0.11 = 1.03r

r = 8.82  {If inflation is higher at 9%}

If inflation could have been at expected 3%, real interest rate could have been 14% - 3% = 11%.

So : As inflation rate turned out to be higher than expected inflation rate, real interest rate turned out to be lower than expected real interest rate

What is one likely result of a promotion from graphic designer to art director?
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

B, Less hands on creative work

Explanation:

When a graphic designer is promoted to the position of Art director, he/she has has reduced the number of hands on creative work. This is because it is the job of graphic designers to come up with the actual designs while the Art director is the overall head of the design department as he maps out and approves the designs of the graphic designers.

Although, to become an Art director, one must have the basic knowledge of graphic design.

Art directors usually work with the graphic designers to ensure that they do a good job and most importantly present the designs for approval.

Cheers.
