Answer and Explanation:

a. The computation of an employer's payroll taxes is shown below:-

Employer's payroll taxes =  Social Security tax payable + Medicare tax payable + State Unemployment tax payable + Federal Unemployment tax payable

= ($560,000 × 6%) + ($560,000 × 1.5%) + ($60,000 × 0.6%) + ($60,000 × 0.6%)

= $33,600 + $8,400 + $3,240 + $360

= $45,600

b. The Journal entry is shown below:-

Payroll tax expense $ Dr, $45,600    -

     To Social Security tax payable $33,600

     To Medicare tax payable $8,400

     To State Unemployment tax payable $3,240  

    To Federal Unemployment tax payable $360

(Being accrual of payroll taxes is recorded)

miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

19.05%

Explanation:

the approximate yield to maturity (YTM) formula is:

approximate YTM = {C + [(FV - PV) / n]} /  [(FV + PV) / 2]

  • C = coupon payment = $130
  • FV = face value or value at maturity = $1,000
  • PV = present value or current market value = $690
  • n = 10 years

approximate YTM = {$130 + [($1,000 - $690) / 10]} /  [($1,000 + $690) / 2] = ($130 + $31) / $845 = $161 / $845 = 0.1905 or 19.05%

Read the following sentence, and determine which technique is most applicable to improve its readability.
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

The correct option is A. Using numbered or bulleted lists.

Explanation:

EXPLANATION

A. Using numbered or bulleted lists

<em>Use numbered lists when you're explaining instructions that need to be performed in sequence. In situations where numbers are not essential use bullets, especially in business related documents</em>

<em>Bulleted lists are used to make items stand out from the text without implying order of importance. They may include punctuation marks like commas and semicolons</em>

This is the correct answer, use of numbered list. We were told in the question to follow a particular order to fill out an expense report. You begin by writing your name and end by obtaining the supervisor’s signature

B. Using graphic techniques

<em>Graphics are visual elements that can be used to point readers and viewers to a particular information. Graphic techniques are visually engaging in order to attract and inform a large audience. Diagrams and graphs can help learners comprehend abstract concepts using visual language to depict meaning. For instance, in diagrams the connecting lines between elements help learners understand relationships. Bar graphs make it easy to compare data; line graphs help learners understand trends</em>

This option is wrong. The expense report is not a new concept

C. Developing parallelism for balance

Parallelism in literature is the repetition of a word or phrase within a sentence or group of sentences. It is used to help organize ideas, but also to make the ideas memorable.  

This option is also wrong

LenKa [72]

Answer:

d. 234,000 lbs. of A; e. 39,000 lbs. of B

Explanation:

For computing the number of pounds first we have to find out the production units which is shown below:

Production units = Sales units + ending inventory units - beginning inventory units

= 76,000 units + 10,500 units - 8,500 units

= 78,000 units

Now number of material pounds required is

Direct material            A          B  

One unit requires           3 lbs 1 ÷ 2 lbs

Multiply 78000 unit requires   234,000 39,000

We simply multiplied the production units with the required unit of each material i.e A and B so that the accurate number of pounds could arrive
