As compared to the national average, a Texas family in the lowest 20 percent of income pays ______ of their income in taxes.

1 answer:

5 0

In Texas, a family in the lowest 20% of income will, in a manner different from the national average, pay more of their income.

<h3>Why would they pay more?</h3>

Texas operates a regressive taxation system which means that the richer you are, the less percentage tax you pay.

This means that the poorer families have to pay a higher percentage than others. This is different from much of the U.S. where the poor pay less.

In conclusion, they pay more of their income.

The amount of income tax that he withholds is $36.70 + 12% of excess over $509

$\$ 36.70+12 \%(\$ 613.40-\$ 509)=\$ 36.70+12 \% \text { of } \$ 104.40=\$ 36.70+\$ 12.53=\$ 49.23$

The amount to withhold for Federal income tax is $49.23.

The wages falls under the category of Over $444 but under $1,177.

The amount of income tax that he withholds is $0 + 10% of excess over $444.

The computation of the manufacturing overhead is shown below:

Predetermined overhead rate = (Total estimated manufacturing overhead) ÷ (estimated direct labor-hours)

kherson [118]

Answer:

$1,840

Explanation:

In order to calculate the Marginal cost of producing the computers in 2nd hour of work, we need to add the marginal cost of computer and marginal cost of wage in the 2nd hour of work.

MC = MC(computers) + MC(wage)

MC = $1,800(w) + $40

MC = $1,840

Working

MC (computers ) = 3 x 600$ = $1,800

hour computers assembled

1st 4

2nd 7

If pam works 2 hours she can assemble 7 computers but she already assembled 4 computers in 1st hour.

So the 2nd-hour computers will be 3 ( 7 - 4) computers.
