In its simplest form, amdahl's law maintains that if a given program would take one hour to run to completion with one processor

, but 80 percent of the program had to run sequentially (and therefore could not be sped up by applying additional processors to it), then a resulting parallel program would run only a maximum of ____ percent faster.

<span>20% is the maximum speed up possible for this program. For this problem, let's assign the time of 1 for the task when using a single processor. Now let's assume that we have an infinite number of processors available to handle the portion of the program that can be executed in parallel so that the execution time for that portion will be 0. That means that the total execution time with an infinite number of processors will be 1 * (0.80 + 0) = 1 * 0.80 = 0.80 So at best, the parallel program will take 80% of the time for the single threaded version. So the speed increase will be (1 - 0.80) / 1 = 0.20/1 = 0.20 = 20%</span>

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

1. Salary expense = $2,300,000

Withholdings = $494,500

Salary payable = $1,805,500

2. Total fringe benefits = $185,150

3. Payroll tax = $494,500

Explanation:

1. Employee salary expense is given as $2,300,00

Withholdings is given as $494,500. This is the sum total of federal and state FICA taxes and unemployment tax.

Salaries payable is employee salary expense less withholdings.

Salaries payable = 2,300,000 - 494,500

= $1,805,500

2. Employer-provided fringe benefits includes medical insurance, dental insurance, life insurance and voluntary retirement plan contribution. The corporation matches employee contributions to a voluntary retirement plan up to 6% of their salaries and employee contribution to voluntary retirement plan is $115,000. Since this amount is 5% of salaries, the corporation will contribute an equal amount.

Medical insurance premiums paid by employer = $46,000

Dental insurance premiums paid by employer = $16,100

Life insurance premiums paid by employer = $8,050

Employer contribution to voluntary retirement plan = $115,000

Total fringe benefits = $185,150

3. Employer payroll taxes includes Federal and state FICA taxes and unemployment tax.

Federal FICA tax (rate of 7.65%) = (7.65/100) * 2300000 = $175,950

State FICA tax (rate of 7.65%) = (7.65/100) * 2300000 = $175,950

Unemployment tax (rate of 6.20%) = (6.20/100) * 2300000 = $142,600

Total pay roll tax = 175950 + 175950 +142600

= $494,500

Being cash payment of dividend

Explanation:

a) 2/10, n/30 means that the buyer is to pay within 30 days but is entitled to 2% discount if the purchase is paid for in 10 days. Since Pina records at net amounts after cash discount

To record this purchase = 63,300 * 0.02 = 1,266

                                        = 63,300 - 1266 = $62,034

b) Since payment was made on 26th, it means the 10 day discount was not utilized hence Pina pays full price for the goods
