Let's calculate first how much money you earn:
40*8.75=350$

The transportation and lunch for the 5 days:
3.85*5=19.25$ (lunch)
4.25*5=21.25 (transportation)
Black slacks = 29.95

FICA = 7.65/100*350(money you earned) = 26.775$
Federal withholding = 12/100*350=42$
<span>State withholding = 8/100*350=28$
</span>
<span>Your discretionary income = 350-19.25-29.95-21.25-26.775-42-28=182.775$
</span>
The final answer is: A.<span>$182.77</span>

Information regarding Maxwell’s direct labor cost for the month of January follows: Direct labor hourly rate paid $ 29.20 Total
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

  1. <u>std rate  $30.64</u>
  2. <u>efficiency variance  $6,128.00</u>

Explanation:

We will work the rate variance to obtain the standard rate:

(standard\:rate-actual\:rate) \times actual \: hours DL \: rate \: variance

actual rate  $29.20

actual hours 11,700

difference  $1.44

rate variance  $16,800.00

(standard\:rate-29.2) \times 11,700 = 16,700

(standard\:rate= 16,700 \div 11,700 +29.2

<u>std rate  $30.64</u>

<u></u>

<u>Now we can solve for the labor efficiency variance:</u>

(standard\:hours-actual\:hours) \times standard \: rate = DL \: efficiency \: variance

std  hours 11700

actual hours 11500

std rate  $30.64

difference 200

<u>efficiency variance  $6,128.00</u>

The diference is positive, sothe variance is favorable.

Huai takes out a $3,600 student loan at 6.6% to help him with 2 years of community college. After finishing the 2 years, he tran
Alja [10]

Answer:

a. The monthly payment on loan 1 is $76.03.

b. The monthly payment on loan 2 is $411.69.

Explanation:

a. Calculate the monthly payment on loan 1.

To determine the amount of periodic payments, the present value of annuity formula should be used:

PV=P(\frac{1-(1+r)^{-n} }{r} )

Where:

PV= present value

p=periodic payment

i=rate of interest

n=number of periods

We get the data for this exercise:

PV= 3,600 (loan).

p= unknown (we must find this value)

i= 6.6% or 0.066. However, because we need to know the monthly payment, the interest rate should be divided by 12 (0.066 / 12).

n= 4 years and 7 months, that is 55 months.

And we replace in the formula:

3600=P(\frac{1-(1+\frac{0.066}{12})^{-55} }{\frac{0.066}{12} } )

3600=P(\frac{1-(1+0.055)^{-55} }{0.0055} )

3600=P(\frac{1-(0.7395812268)}{0.0055} )

3600=P(\frac{0.2604187732}{0.0055} )

3600=P(47.348867)

Therefore:

P=\frac{3600}{47.348867}

P=76.03

The monthly payment on loan 1 is $76.03.

b. Calculate the monthly payment on loan 2.

We get the data for this exercise:

PV= 11,600 (loan 2).

p= unknown (we must find this value)

i= 7.3% or 0.073. However, because we need to know the monthly payment, the interest rate should be divided by 12 (0.073 / 12).

n= 2 years and 7 months, that is 31 months.

And we replace in the formula:

11600=P(\frac{1-(1+\frac{0.073}{12})^{-31} }{\frac{0.073}{12} } )

11600=P(\frac{1-(1+0.006083)^{-31} }{0.006083} )

11600=P(\frac{1-(0.8286047296)}{0.006083} )

11600=P(\frac{0.1713952704}{0.006083} )

11600=P(28.1761088936)

Therefore:

P=\frac{11600}{28.1761088936}

P=411.69

The monthly payment on loan 2 is $411.69.
