Answer:  

E. buyer; take; seller; make

Explanation:

A forward contract is a private agreement or a customized contract   between two parties giving the buyer an obligation to purchase an asset (and the seller an obligation to sell an asset) at a set price at a future point in time.

If you plan to grow 500 orange trees five years, you could sell your oranges for whatever the price is when you harvest it, or you could lock in a price now by selling a forward contract that obligates you to sell 500 orange trees to , say, Orange juice company after the harvest for a fixed price. By locking in the price now, you eliminate the risk of falling orange prices. On the other hand, if prices rise later, you will get only what your contract entitles you to.

If you are Orange juice company, you might want to purchase a forward contract to lock in prices and control your costs. However, you might end up overpaying or (hopefully) underpaying for the orange depending on the market price when you take delivery of the orange.

  • consultant $4,000
  • computer programmer $3,300
  • administrator $2,800

Net pay:

  • consultant $2,767.98
  • computer programmer $2,295.48
  • administrator $1,993.98

Explanation:

                                           regular earnings     overtime    withholding  

                                                                                              allowances

Consultant                        $4,000 per week       N/A                2

Computer programmer          $60 per hour        1.5                  1

Administrator                          $50 per hour          2                  2

computer programmer worked 50 hours = ($60 x 40) + ($60 x 10 x 1.5) = $3,300

administrator worked 48 hours = ($50 x 40) + ($50 x 8 x 2) = $2,800

Social security taxes:

  • Consultant = 6% x $4,000 = $240                        
  • Computer programmer = 6% x $3,300 = $198        
  • Administrator = 6% x $2,800 = $168

Medicare taxes:

  • Consultant = 1.5% x $4,000 = $60                        
  • Computer programmer = 1.5% x $3,300 = $49.50        
  • Administrator = 1.5% x $2,800 = $42

Federal income taxes:

  • Consultant: amount subject to withholding = $4,000 - (2 x $75) = $3,850. Federal income taxes = $356.90 + [28% x ($3,850 - $1,796) = $932.02                        
  • Computer programmer = amount subject to withholding = $3,300 - (1 x $75) = $3,225. Federal income taxes = $356.90 + [28% x ($3,225 - $1,796) = $757.02            
  • Administrator = amount subject to withholding = $2,800 - (2 x $75) = $2,650. Federal income taxes = $356.90 + [28% x ($2,650 - $1,796) = $596.02  

Gross pay:

  • consultant $4,000
  • computer programmer $3,300
  • administrator $2,800

Net pay:

  • consultant $4,000 - ($240 + $60 + $932.02) = $2,767.98
  • computer programmer $3,300 - ($198 + $49.50 + $757.02) = $2,295.48
  • administrator $2,800 - ($168 + $42 + $596.02) = $1,993.98
