Answer:

The total payroll tax expenses is   $3139.5

See the prepared journal in the explanation below.

Explanation:

Before it is presented on a general journal, the calculation is done below;

1. Payroll tax expenses:

FICA Social Security taxes = 6.2% * 2300 * 10

                                             = 0.062 * 2300 * 10

                                            = $1,426

FICA Medicare taxes  =  1.45% * 2300 * 10

                                    = 0.0145 * 2300 * 10

                                    = $333.5

FUTA taxes  =  0.6% * 2300 * 10

                      = 0.006 * 2300 * 10

                    =$138

SUTA taxes = 5.4% * 2300 * 10

                    = 0.054 * 2300 *10

                    = $1242

Total payroll tax expenses = $1,426 + $333.5 + $138 + $1242

                                             = $3139.5

Date         General Journal                             Debit            Credit

antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

The correct answer is: declines; higher economic; will incur losses.

Explanation:

A perfectly competitive firm has 1,000 firms that are operating in the long-run equilibrium.  

Out of these firms, 100 firms have adopted a new technology that has caused their average cost of production to decline.  

These firms will be able to produce more output at the same cost. As a result, their supply will increase, this will cause the price to decline.  

The firms with new technology that are facing a lower average cost of production will earn positive economic profits as they have lower costs.  

The firms with old technology that have higher production costs will incur economic losses as they have higher costs.

In most markets, _____ is determined by the interactions of numerous buyers and sellers.
anastassius [24]

Buyers and sellers interact in a market to exchange commodities, services, or resources. Prices and trade volume are mostly influenced by how buyers and sellers interact in a "market."

The buyer-seller interaction process is viewed as a transaction in and of itself, with potential for numerous outcomes. The buyer-seller interaction, which is compared to the effect of advertising, is assumed to carry out any of the following five functions: raise awareness of each other's expectations about the product or service; remind each other of past successful transactions and their behavioral outcomes; reinforce each other's behavior related to the sale of the product or service; prompt behavioral actions on each other's parts by intensifying expectations; and persuade each other.
