Answer:

$1,021

Explanation:

Net income is the net of Gross income and any taxes and deduction.

Income tax and FICA(OASDI and Medicare are calculated on the gross income and

First we calculate the total income using standard and overtime rate

Total Numbers of Hours worked in a week = 50 hours

Standard Hours = 40 hours

Rate of Standard Hours = $24 per hour

Rate of overtime = $36 per hour

Income

Standard = $24 x 40 = $960

Overtime = $36 x (50-40) = $360

Total  = $960 + $360 = $1,320

Income tax = Gross Income x Income tax rate = $1,320 x 15% = $198

FICA(OASDI and Medicare = Gross Income x rate = $1,320 x 7.65% = $101

Net Income = $1,320 - $198 - $101 = $1,021

It is always desirable to have a higher compounding frequency, regardless of the initial investment or the time horizon. True Fa
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

The answer is given below

Explanation:

Compounding frequency is the number of times the interest is paid in a year. A higher compounding frequency for a investment with the same initial investment and time horizon would produce more interest and profit as compared to that with a lower compounding frequency. But for a smaller initial investment or less time horizon of higher compounding frequency as compared to larger initial investment or more time horizon of lower compounding frequency, that of the lower compounding frequency is more desirable because it would produce more interest.

QveST [7]

Answer:

  • <em><u>C. Drive at the posted speed limit</u></em>

Explanation:

The answer choices for this question are:

  • A. Keep alert and watch out for construction barrels or cones
  • B. Slow down even if you don't think you'll hit a road worker
  • C. Drive at the posted speed limit
  • D. Keep as much distance as you can while navigating around them

All those risks make that you have to be extremely careful, reduce your speed, lower than than the posted speed limit.

Thus, you should:

  • A. Keep alert and watch out for construction barrels or cones
  • B. Slow down even if you don't think you'll hit a road worker
  • C. <u>NOT </u>drive at the posted speed limit
  • D. Keep as much distance as you can while navigating around them
