Answer:
- Self employment tax liability = $22,323.97
- Additional Medicare tax liability = $0
Explanation:
According to the IRS, the amount subject to self-employment tax is 92.35% of net income from self-employment for the year.
Alice's taxable income is:
= 92.35% * 196,000
= $181,006
Self employment tax-liability:
Social security tax for 2020 is 12.4% for the first $137,700 of income.
= 12.4% * 137,700
= $17,074.80
Medicare tax:
= 2.9% on taxable income
= 2.9% * 181,006
= $5,249.17
Self-employment tax is:
= 17,074.80 + 5,249.17
= $22,323.97
<em>Additional Medicare tax applies on only amounts above $200,000 so it is $0 in this case. </em>
Answer:
The advantages of starting own business:
- Flexibility: a person who starts his own business does not necessarily have to work 9/5 monday-friday, he can set his own schedule. Needless to say, many business owners work longer hours than regular employees, but the do so because of the hope to earn more money from profits than from a regular wage.
- The possibility of profit: an employee in a legal firm will not be able to obtain any dividends (unless he owns stock), while the very definition of a business owner is someone who obtains profits.
- Fulfillment: it is probably more fulfilling to see your own business develop and grow than go to work everyday for someone else's company.
Some disdavantages are:
- Risk: starting a business is risky. The business might result in losses instead of profits, in other words, the business may fail.
- Capital needs: to start a business, you need some capital, and it is not always easy to obtain. Most business owners either get debts, or liquidate some of their own assets (house, car, etc) to finance the company.
- Longer work hours: as stated above, it's very likely that a business owner will have to work night and day, especially during the first stages.
Answer:
B. $2,000
Explanation:
The principal amount is $100,000
Interest rate is 8% usually per year ( 12 months)
Loan duration, three months:
Annual interest = $100,000.00 x 8%
=$100,000.00x 0.08
=$ 8000.00
Interest for 3 months
=3/12x$8000.00
=0.25x$8000.00
=$2000
Answer: Williamson industries would have obtained $7.78 billion in sales
Explanation: According to the question, the company is having a total of $2 billion in fixed assets. The fixed assets are currently operating at 90% (0.9) of its total capacity. At his level, the company is able to achieve a sales figure of $7 billion. The implication is as follows;
Fixed assets (at 100%) = 2 billion
Fixed assets (at 90%) = 2 * 0.9
Fixed assets (at 90%) = 1.8
If the company utilizes $1.8 billion to achieve a $7 billion sales figure, then operating at full capacity (100%) would yield the following;
7/x = 90/100
(Where x equals sales level at 100% capacity)
7/x = 0.9
Cross multiply
x = 7/0.9
x = 7.7777...
x ≈ 7.78
Therefore, if Williamson Industries had been operating at full capacity, it would have obtained a sales level of $7.78 billion
The answer would be True if it’s a true or false question
