dezoksy [38]

Answer:

The accounts receivable turnover rate is 21.73

Explanation:

The formula for accounts receivable turnover is

365/Average days to collect.

This way we can find how many times a year does the company collect payments for its accounts receivable, so when we divide the total number of days in a year by the average number of days to collect we can calculate how many times we collect payment for accounts receivable.

In the question we are given the average days to collect which is 16.8

We have to put that into a formula

365/16.8=21.73

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
