Answer: D. all of the above.

Explanation:

FUTA:

Cumulative earnings were $4,000. FUTA is one the first $7,000 which means that only $3,000 is left to be taxed on account of the cumulative earnings prior to this payroll having been taxed:

= 0.8% * 3,000

= $24

This will be credited to FUTA Payable to recognize that Jefferson owes this liability.

SUTA:

Same goes for SUTA:

= 2% * 3,000

= $60

This will be credited to SUTA Payable to recognize that Jefferson owes this liability.

Payroll tax expense:

= FICA taxes + Medicare + FUTA + SUTA

= ((6.2% + 1.45%) * 4,000) + 24 + 60

= $390

This will be debited to Payroll Tax expense because expenses are debited when they increase.

How have embedded computers and the IoT impacted your daily life? What additional uses can you see yourself using? What security

Zigmanuir [339]

NOTE: Before discussing the impacts of embedded computers and the IoT, first, let me briefly explain what both of them are in simple words (without any complex jargon) for a better understanding.

Embedded computers are the programmable controllers (or loosely speaking, chips) designed to perform specific or dedicated tasks within a device. They take input (from sensors etc.), process it in a predefined steps (or instructions) and give an output.

The IoT, on the other hand, is the Internet of Things. It is the system of interconnected things that can communicate with one another directly over the network (internet). The word Things in the IoT incorporates an array of objects ranging from devices like digital and security cameras, wearable watches, GPS navigation systems, washing machines, refrigerators to buildings and even cities.

All in all, embedded computers enable the things with the automation capabilities, while the IoT empowers those things with the communication abilities.

(1) Impacts of Embedded Computers and the IoT

In the current era, almost all devices around us have embedded computer(s). Not only that, many of those devices have an ability to connect to the Internet through WiFi. The impacts of embedded computers and the IoT together can easily be understood by the some of the examples, as follows:

Nowadays, we have smart washing machines that not only be able to rinse, wash and dry clothes automatically, economically and efficiently—thanks to the embedded computers—but they can also be controlled remotely or can also send a notification to a mobile phone by the virtue of the IoT. It saves our energy (by automatically washing the clothes), our money (by efficiently using the detergent), resources (by rinsing and washing the clothes with the amount of water required—water conservation) and our time (by being controlled remotely or by sending a notification on a mobile phone when it’s done instead of us checking up its progress every ten minutes or so). In the past, however, laundry used to be done manually, which was not only a time consuming and tiring task, but it was also an ineffective way for the resource conservation.
Finding a nearby cab is now in the palm of our hands. Modern cab service providers, via their mobile applications, share the location of their cabs, in which the GPS navigation system (consists of GPS module and the embedded computer(s), connected with the internet). Hence, without any hassle, a nearby cab can be arranged and also at any time. The same applies on the most, modern bus services. Before that, one had to be physically on the road to find the cab with no surety of getting one. Now, beforehand, you can book your ride.
Smart door locking systems and smart security cameras inside or outside homes are able to notify the authorities or to the owners in the case of intrusion, and, thus, making lives and possessions safe and secure. Previously, although security cameras and locking systems were there, they couldn’t communicate with other devices (like mobile phones) remotely. A person had to be physically in the house to see the camera feed or to hear the intrusion alarm.
Embedded computers and the IoT is revolutionising the quality of life in terms of health. The IoT based smart-bands or watches can continuously monitor the blood pressure and heart rate in real time through the IoT based devices with embedded computers connected with the sensors. In the case of emergency, those IoT based devices send a notification to the emergency contacts. In the past, there was no way of checking your ECG at home—let alone the question of automatically sending ECG report to the emergency contacts.

In a nutshell, embedded computers and the IoT have impacted our daily lives in a meaningful and constructive way.

(2) Additional Uses

Well, this part of the question cannot be answered in a generic way; therefore, let me give you my opinion on that.

I am seeing myself using the IoT based learning devices like Google Nest thermostat. It uses machine learning to automatically set the optimal temperature of the home.

Ease: To change the temperature, there is no need to be physically there where the thermostat is installed.

Saving: It automatically turns off when there is no person in the home, which is a big plus for saving some extra bucks.

Furthermore, I can see myself using the smart IoT based weight machine that would warn me to stop getting out of shape based on my weight; in the case of non-compliance, it would send my weight as a post to all of my social media accounts. ;)

(3) Security or Other Risks

The privacy would be the major concern (and could be compromised with the usage of IoT). As in the IoT based systems, everything is connected to the internet. Therefore, all the cybersecurity risks and issues are applied on the IoT as well.

The more IoT based devices increase in number, the more the complexity of handling those devices would increase, which may become a bane instead of a boon to a user.

Blushing Co. had Total Assets of $105,000, which included Cash of $30,000, Accounts Receivable of $15,000 Merchandise Inventory

madam [21]

The Acid-test ratio of Blushing Co,. is 1.25.

Acid-test ratio is also known as the quick ratio. It is the ratio of a firm's current assets to its current liabilities. It is a type of liquidity ratio. Liquidity ratio measures the ability of a firm to meet its short term obligation. The higher the acid-test ratio, the higher the liquidity of the firm.

Acid test ratio = (current asset - inventory) / current liabilities

Current assets - inventory = $105,000 - $60,000 = $45,000
Current liabilities = $60,000
Acid-test ratio = $45,000 / $60,000 = 0.75

A business buyers purchase process ends with:

xxTIMURxx [149]

I would see the process ends with the receipt of the goods. I used to work for a large open pit mine and go to the purchasers for buying materials for drilling etc and there would be first the requisition, then the purchaser would contact the seller or client and order the goods, then they would be purchased with the right account and finally received.

Answer:

B. is equal to the nominal interest rate minus the inflation rate

3.317% fisher formula

Explanation:

5.9 - 2.5 = 3.4 real rate

or using fisher formula

$\frac{1+rate}{1+inflation} - 1 = $real rate$

1.059/1.025 - 1= 3.317 real rate
