Answer:

Nanny's Portion of Social Security is $442.68  

Ann's Portion of Social Security Tax is $442.68

Nanny's Portion of Medicare Tax is $103.53  

Ann's Portion of Medicare Tax is $103.53

Explanation:

As explained by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) under "Topic No. 751 Social Security and Medicare Withholding Rates", the social security tax rate are 6.2 percent for the employer and 6.2 percent for the employee, while the Medicare rate for employee is 1.45 percent and it is also 1.45 percent for the employer. In addition, the wage base limit for 2020 social security tax is $137,700.

Base on the above, we proceed as follows:

Step 2: Calculation total salary of nanny

Total salary of nanny = weekly rate × number of weeks worked

                                   = $170 × 42

                                   = $7,140

Step 2: Calculation of social security tax

Since the nanny's salary is below the wage base limit of $137,700, the tax rates are applied to the actual salary of $7,140 as follows:

Nanny's Portion of Social Security Tax = $7,140 × 6.2% = $442.68  

Ann's Portion of Social Security Tax = $7,140 × 6.2% = $442.68

Step 3: Calculation of Medicare tax

Since there is no wage base limit for Medicare tax, the tax rates are applied to the actual salary of $7,140 as follows:

Nanny's Portion of Medicare Tax = $7,140 × 1.45% = $103.53  

Ann's Portion of Medicare Tax = $7,140 × 1.45% = $103.53

Answers are: 
<span>Producers supply the exact goods that consumers buy.
Consumers have enough goods, at the given price
</span><span>Producers use their resources efficiently

At the equilibrium price, the quantity bought= quantity sold. Consumers have enough goods at the given price, meaning that there isn't anyone who wants to buy the good at that price but can't, and producers use their resources efficiently.

The whole economy does not waste resources, since this is the market-efficient outcome, and there aren't many shortages or surpluses for the same reason. </span>

What are the managerial implications of a borderless organization?
Andrews [41]
<span>In my opinion, the managerial implications of a borderless organization could be a language barrier: complete from a different spoken language to even just day to day colloquial words or phrases. Another could be different labor laws in different countries. Another big one is the fact that different time zones could come into play and if improperly accounted for or organized with, this could really turn business upside down.</span>

Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": the ease with which an asset is converted to the medium of exchange.

Explanation:

The liquidity of an asset reflects the ease with which it can be transformed from investment to cash. Liquid assets are those that can be transformed easily to cash and see little or no difference in the value of the assets when transformed. Illiquid assets are more difficult to convert and can result in a major decrease in value once converted.
