Answer:

Federal social insurance taxes include OASDI taxes (Social Security) and Medicare taxes. Currently. In 2012, the Social Security tax limit was $110,100, while their was no limit on Medicare.

The Social Security tax rate was temporarily reduced during 2011 and 2012 from 6.2% to 4.2%, so your Social Security tax withholdings were $4,624.20 in 2012.

Medicare taxes did not change in 2012 and were 1.45%, so your Medicare tax withholding were $1,812.50 in 2012.

bazaltina [42]

Answer:

Closed-End Fund

Explanation:

Close-End Funds raise money through an IPO and then its stocks are traded on secondary markets. There are no new issuance of stocks, nor there are repurchases of stocks, therefore, the price of their stocks is determined by the market. That is why their stock price will be based on its net asset value, but it fluctuates and is not dependent on it.

Mulherin's stock has a beta of 1.23, its required return is 11.75%, and the risk-free rate is 2.30%. What is the required rate o
koban [17]

Answer:

a. 9.98%

Explanation:

The computation of required rate of return is shown below:-

Required return= Risk - Free rate + Beta × (Market rate- Risk-free rate)

11.75% = 2.30% + 1.23 × (Market rate - 2.3%)

(11.75% - 2.30%) ÷ 1.23 = Market rate - 2.3%

Market rate = (11.75% - 2.30%) ÷ 1.23 + 2.3%

=9.98%

Therefore for computing the required rate of return on the market we simply applied the above formula.

Sarasota Company has a balance of $2,200 in Allowance for Doubtful Accounts before adjustment. The estimated uncollectibles unde
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

Debit : Allowance for doubtful debts = $2900

Credit : Accounts receivables = $2900

Explanation:

An account for allowance for doubtful debts is a contra account created, predicting that certain debtors will not be able to pay for the goods and services they purchased. This may be based on historical experiences. Doubtful debts aren’t officially uncollectible, it is simply an estimation made, but bad debts are, where you have officially written off a certain accounts receivable as uncollectible.

An allowance for doubtful debts is recorded in the balance sheet, directly under accounts receivables. Bad debts are recorded as an expense in the income statement. When there is an allowance for doubtful debts, the bad debts account is debited and the allowance for doubtful debts account is credited.

According to the question, the balance was $2,200 (Cr) in the allowance for doubtful debts account. The initial expected amount for allowance for doubtful debts was $5100 (Cr). This means that the difference was the amount that was declared as uncollectible and officially written off i.e. bad debts. Thus $2900 ($5100 -$2200) would have been confirmed as bad debts.

The entry to record the above transaction is:

Debit : Allowance for doubtful debts = $2900

Credit : Accounts receivables = $2900
