Marilyn has a biweekly gross pay of $810 and claims 3 federal withholding allowances. Marilyn has all of the following deduction

frutty [35]

The net pay of Marilyn will increase by $18.15 due to the increase in the federal withholding allowances from 3 to 4.

<h3>The computation of net pay considering various federal withholding allowances</h3>

Given,

Gross pay =$810

3 Federal withholding allowances =$37 (taken from the reference table)

4 Federal withholding allowances =$22 (taken from the reference table)

Federal state tax rate =21%

First, the state tax rate and the total amount of withholding for 3 Federal withholding allowances are computed:

$\begin{aligned}\text{State Tax}&=\text{Claim Amount}\times\text{Federal State Tax Rate}\\&=\$37\times21\%\\&=\$7.77\end{aligned}$

$\begin{aligned}\text{Total Amount of 3 withholdings}&=\text{Claim Amount}+\text{State Tax}\\&=\$37+\$7.77\\&=\$44.77\end{aligned}$

Now, the state tax rate and the total amount of withholding for 4 Federal withholding allowances are computed:

$\begin{aligned}\text{State Tax}&=\text{Claim Amount}\times\text{Federal State Tax Rate}\\&=\$22\times21\%\\&=\$4.62\end{aligned}$

$\begin{aligned}\text{Total Amount of 4 withholdings}&=\text{Claim Amount}+\text{State Tax}\\&=\$22+\$4.62\\&=\$26.62\end{aligned}$

The difference in the net pay will be the difference between $44.77 and $26.62, which is $18.15.

Therefore, Marilyn withholding will decrease from $44.77 to $26.62 that is increasing the net pay by $18.15

The Carter Corporation makes products A and B in a joint process from a single input, R. During a typical production run, 50,000

klemol [59]

Answer: $54,000 per production run

Explanation:

As we are dealing with the decision of whether or not to process the good further, the irrelevant cost would be the cost of producing product B from input R.

This is because this cost has already been incurred to produce product B and so is a sunk cost. Sunk costs are irrelevant to the decision to process further.

30,000 units of B were made from 90,000 units R so the cost of B is:

= 30,000 / 50,000 * 90,000

= $54,000
