1 answer:
Answer:
Option D. $850.64; $91.14
Step-by-step explanation:
Joyce Meadow pays her three workers per week $160, $470 and $800 respectively.
A year has 52 weeks, Therefore quarter has = 13 weeks.
So for a quarter she pays = 160 × 13 = $2,080, 470 × 13 = $6,110, 800 × 13 = $10,400
State rate is 5.6%
Federal rate is 0.6%
Base is $7,000
It means the unemployment needs to be paid on the first $7000 only
So the state unemployment = (0.056 × 2,080) + (0.056 × 6,110) + (0.056 × 7,000)
= 116.48 + 342.16 + 392 = $850.64
Federal unemployment = (0.006 × 2,080) + (0.006 × 6,110) + (0.006 × 7,000)
= 12.48 + 36.66 + 42 = $91.14
Option D. is the correct answer.
