Answer: d. Uncle John's
Absolute Advantage refers to the ability of an individual, company, region or country to produce a particular product or service at a price lower than that of his or her or its competitors.
When the price for the company's products are lower in comparison to other similar products, the demand for its products are more and it's able to sell more number of units than its competitors.
In this case, Uncle John's has the absolute advantage since it sold the most number of cookies (125)
This is called a "Sponsorship"
Given:
130,500 net pay to employees
19,000 income tax withholding
5,000 FICA withholding
130,500 + 19,000 + 5,000 + 5,000 = 159,500
<span>The total wages and payroll tax expense to the company for this pay period, excluding any unemployment taxes, is $159,500.
</span>
The 5,000 is added twice because the first 5,000 is withheld from the employees salary as the employees share. The employer also has to pay off 5,000 as employer's share to the employee's FICA withholding. Thus, the presence of the 2nd 5,000.
FICA, <span> Federal Insurance Contributions Act,</span> is composed of
1) <span>6.2 % Social Security tax;
2) <span>1.45 % Medicare tax (the “regular” Medicare tax); and
3) 0.9 % of a Medicare surtax starting 2013 for employees earning over $200,000.
