Juanita receives her paycheck and knows that her gross pay and federal tax are correct. Using the fact that Social Security tax

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

a. The net pay is correct.

Explanation:

Suppose the missing part of the question which is the gross pay and the federal tax is 1020.00 and 107.00 respectively.

Then, Social Security tax 6.2% of the gross pay = $\dfrac{6.2}{100}\times 1020$

Social Security tax 6.2% of the gross pay = 0.062 × 1020

Social Security tax 6.2% of the gross pay = $63.24

the Medicare tax is 1.45% of gross pay = $\dfrac{1.45}{100} \times 1020$

the Medicare tax is 1.45% of gross pay = 0.0145 × 1020

the Medicare tax is 1.45% of gross pay = $14.79

the state tax is 19% of federal tax = $\dfrac{19}{100} \times 107$

the state tax is 19% of federal tax = 0.19 × 107

the state tax is 19% of federal tax = $20.33

Hence, to determine if Juanita's net pay is correct, we have the summation of all our estimated figures minus the gross pay.

i.e

Juanita's net pay = $1020 - $(107 + 63.24 + 14.79 + 20.33)

Juanita's net pay = $1020 - 205.36

Juanita's net pay = $814.64

In a survey of first graders, their mean height was 49.9 inches with a standard deviation of 3.15 inches. Assuming the heights a

uysha [10]

Answer:

The answer is (b) 47.77 inches

Explanation:

The first quartile is the 25th percentile, which is where 25% of the data falls. Since the data is normally distributed, we will use the formula

$z = \frac{height - mean}{sd}$

First step is to look up the z-value of 25% = 0.25 in the standard normal table. z-value of 0.25 ≈ -0.67.

Therefore, the height that represent the first quartile is given as $height = z*sd + mean = (-0.67) (3.15) + 49.9$ $= 47.77$ .

Calculate the average and marginal tax rates in the following table. (Hint: Enter your answers as decimals and do not round when

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

1. a. Average Tax rate = 130/2,000 = 6.5%

Marginal Tax Rate = (130 - 0)/ (2,000 - 0) = 6.5%

b. Average Tax rate = 650/10,000 = 6.5%

Marginal Tax Rate = $\frac{650-130}{10,000-2,000}$ = 6.5%

c. Average Tax rate = 1,300/20,000 = 6.5%

Marginal Tax Rate = $\frac{1,300-650}{20,000-10,000}$ = 6.5%

d. Average Tax rate = 6,500/100,000 = 6.5%

Marginal Tax Rate = $\frac{6,500-1,300}{100,000-20,000}$ = 6.5%

2. The tax rates shown in this table are: Proportional

Proportional Taxes take the same percentage of income across all income groups.

3. A. True

4. Sean and Bob would both vote yes as the Marginal Benefit of the project exceeds their marginal cost but project will not be funded in the end as the Total Marginal Cost exceeds Total Marginal benefit. Sean and Bob may want to pay but Yvette will not.

5. If this same project were taking place in the private sector, a firm would not fund the project.

6. In private markets, decisions to provide goods or services to the market are generally made if marginal benefits exceed marginal costs

7. As a result, governments may approve projects whose costs exceed their benefits.
