Answer:

The U.S. federal debt as a fraction of GDP in year 2050 will be 77%

Explanation:

According to the given data we have the following:

Debt in the end of 2018 = 104% of GDP

Nominal GDP growth = 3%

Interest on debt = 2%

In order to calculate What will be the U.S. federal debt as a fraction of GDP in year 2050 first we have to calculate the debt in 2050 using the following formula:

Debt in 2050 = Current Debt*(1+r%)n

Debt in 2050 = 104*1.0232 = 196

Next, we would have to calculate the GDP in 2050 using the following formula:

GDP in 2050 = Current GDP*(1+r%)n

GDP in 2050 = 100*1.0332 = 257.5

Therefore, Debt as percentage of GDP in 2050 = 196/ 257 = 77%

Ann hires a nanny to watch her two children while she works at a local hospital. She pays the 19-year-old nanny $170 per week fo
aksik [14]

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
