The amount of employee benefits expense for the current period is

$12,500

Step-by-step explanation:

Belkin Co. provides medical care and insurance benefits to its retirees.

In the current year, Belkin agrees to contribute 5% of the employees’

$250,000 gross salaries to a retirement program

We need to find the amount of employee benefits expense for the

current period

To solve the problem

  • Find the percentage of the benefits
  • Multiply the percentage of benefits by the gross salary
  • The answer is the amount of employee benefits expense for the current period

∵ The benefits for the current year is 5%

∵ These benefits for the gross salaries of $250,000

∴ The amount of benefits = 5% × 250,000

∵ 5% = \frac{5}{100} = 0.05

∴ The amount of benefits = 0.05 × 250,000

∴ The amount of benefits = $12,500

The amount of employee benefits expense for the current period is

$12,500

A sporting goods store sells right-handed and left-handed baseball gloves. In one month, 12 gloves were sold for a total revenue
stepladder [879]

Answer:

9 right-handed gloves and 3 left-handed gloves were sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:  In one month, 12 gloves were sold for a total revenue of \$561.

            right-handed gloves cost \$45 and left-handed gloves cost \$52.

To find: How much of each type of gloves did they sell?

Solution: Let they sell x  right-handed gloves, and y left-handed gloves.

Now, cost of each right-handed gloves =\$45

cost of each left-handed gloves =\$52

Total revenue =\$561

So, we get

45x+52y=561\:\:\:...(i)

Also,  in a month 12 gloves were sold.

So, we get

x+y=12\:\:\:...(ii)

Now, from (ii) we get, x=12-y.

Putting x=12-y in equation (i), we get

45(12-y)+52y=561

\implies 540-45y+52y=561

\implies7y=561-540

\implies7y=21

\implies y=\frac{21}{7}

\implies y=3

Now, putting y=3 in equation (ii), we get

x+3=12

\implies x=12-3

\implies x=9

Hence, 9 right-handed gloves and 3 left-handed gloves were sold.

Clare earned a total of $12 for 2 hours of yard work. How many hours in all will it take Clare
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

3 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

$12 = 2hours

Find how much Clare was paid for one hour

Total money earned ÷ number of hours = wage per hour

12 ÷ 2 = $6 per hour

set up equation

6x = 18

This equation says 6 dollars an hour × number of hours = $18

To solve for this equation, divide both sides by 6 (this isolates the variable)

6x ÷ 6 = 18 ÷ 6

1x = 3

x = 3
