Answer:

$1,350

Explanation:

The computation of the amount pay or received as a refund at the time of filing the income tax return for the year 2019 is shown below:

As we know that

The Medicare tax rate is 1.45% till $200,000

And, if it is above $200,000 than 2.35% is charged (1.45% + 0.9%)

Now

For individually calculated,

Melody = ($200,000 × 1.45%) + ($50,000 × 2.35%) = $4,075

Todd = ($200,000 × 1.45%) + ($50,000 × 2.35%) = $4,075

So, the total is

= $4,075 + $4,075

= $8,150

Now if they filling their joint return so

Total salary is $500,000   ($250,000 × 2)

Medicare upto $250,000 = $3,625 ($250,000 × 1.45%)

for remaining $250,000 = $5,875 ($250,000 × 2.35%)

So, the Total is

= $3,625 + $5,875

= $9,500

Now the refund is

= Joint return - individually return for each one

= $9,500 - $8,150

= $1,350

tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

These two statements are correct:

A. Businesses and jobs rely most strongly on consumer demand.

B.Government regulation is necessary to stabilize the economy.

Explanation:

The first statement is correct because John Maynard Keynes that demand was the most important side of the economy, not supply. This is why his policies are sometimes referred to as "demand-side economics", while the policies of many of his detractors, such as Milton Friedman, are referred to as "supply-side economics".

The second statement is also correct because Keynes believed that a market economy was naturally subject to business cycles: cycles of boom and bust that could either benefit millions, or harm millions. Keynes thought that the government should regulate the economy in order to lessen the effect of those cycles.

Goryan [66]

Answer:

Present value = $21,804 (approx)

Periodic payment = $3,200

Number of period = 12

Interest rate = 10% = 10/100 = 0.1

Present value = ?

Computation of Present value:

Present\ value = PMT[\frac{1-(1+r)^{-n}}{r} ]\\\\Present\ value = 3,200[\frac{1-(1+0.1)^{-12}}{0.1} ]\\\\Present\ value = 3,200[\frac{1-(1.1)^{-12}}{0.1} ]\\\\Present\ value = 3,200[\frac{1-0.318630818}{0.1} ]\\\\Present\ value = 3,200[\frac{0.681369182}{0.1} ]\\\\Present\ value = 21,803.6188

Present value = $21,804 (approx)
