Answer:

If both companies have the sames sales volume, total costs and income from operations, the reason why Gouda has a lower break even point is that their variable costs are lower. We use the contribution margin per unit to calculate the break even point and the contribution margin per unit = sales price - variable costs. The question states that total costs are equal, but it doesn't say anything about variable or fixed costs.

Assuming that Gouda is above break even point, each sale will generate a higher operating profit since the contribution margin is higher.

The chief executive officer earns $20,000 per month. as of may 31, her gross pay was $100,000. the tax rate for social security
omeli [17]

The total is $1,437.

Before June she had already paid social security on $100,000 in earnings. So, in June she only needs to pay social security on $18,500.

$18,500 x .062 = $1,147

She pays Medicare on all of June’s earnings = $20,000 x .0145 = $290

The total amount of FICA -social security withheld from this employee in June is $290 + $1,147 = $1,437

LekaFEV [45]

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

$6,000

Explanation:

A deductible is the amount Conor has to pay before his medical bills and prescriptions start getting coverage from his insurance.

Step 1: 10,000 - 2,000 = 8,000

A co-pay is a fixed amount the insured has to pay for certain medical services.

Step 2: 20% of 8,000 or 0.20 times 8,000 = 1,600

Step 3: add $2,000 (the deductible you have to pay) and $1,600 (the co-pay)

Total amount that Conor will have to pay for the hospital: $3,600
