Answer:
Gross pay:
- 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
Answer:
Inelastic; elastic
Explanation:
Goods with inelastic demand curves tend to raise more government revenue compared to goods with the elastic demand curve. An increase in price does not affect the demand of inelastic goods and it remains the same, that is why, governments usually increase the prices of goods that have inelastic demand curve, for example, petrol and toll tax, etc.
Answer:
Consumption is influenced by advertisements for products that are consumable today and savings from ads that advocate in investing tomorrow.
Explanation:
Both are important to run the circular flow of economy. If a person invests savings on a product, so there should be someone to consume it, this will help in achieving equilibrium point between aggregate demand and aggregate supply.
Increase in one shall result in decrease in other and in both cases either there will be more products to be consumed rather than the actual consumption resulting in surplus if there is excess saving or vice versa .
Answer:
$4
$1 and $3
False
Explanation:
As per the data given in the question,
a)
Amount of tax for each bottle is $4 because the sellers are receiving $2 and buyers are paying $6. Therefore,
Amount of the tax on a bottle of wine is $6 - $2 = $4
b)
Burden on the consumer = $6 - $5
= $1
Burden on the seller = $4 - $1
= $3
c)
False, because the tax incidence depends on the flexibility or elasticity of market.
Answer:
The correct answer is $20,369.65.
Explanation:
According to the scenario, the computation of the given data are as follows:
Payment (pmt) = $2,025
Discount rate ( rate) = 7%
Time period ( Nper) ( 6 -23 years) = 18 years
So, we can calculate the Present value by using financial calculator.
Attachment is attached below.
So, Present Value = $20,369.65
