Asteria earned a $27,000 salary as an employee in 2020. How much should her employer have withheld from her paycheck for FICA taxes

Answers

Answer:

$2,070

Explanation:

Calculation to determine How much should her employer have withheld from her paycheck for FICA taxes

Social security tax 6.2%

Medicare tax which is 1.45%

Social security tax = $27,000 x 6.2%

Medicare tax = $27,000 x 1.45%

Medicare tax =$391.5

FICA taxes Paycheck withheld= - $1,674 + $391.5

FICA taxes Paycheck withheld=$2,065.5

FICA taxes Paycheck withheld=$2,070 (Approximately)

Therefore How much should her employer have withheld from her paycheck for FICA taxes will be $2,070

The company’s contribution format income statement for the most recent month is given below: Sales (12,800 units × $20 per unit) $ 256,000 Variable expenses 153,600 Contribution margin 102,400 Fixed expenses 114,400 Net operating loss $ (12,000 ) Required: 1. Compute the company’s CM ratio and its break-even point in unit sales and dollar sales. 2. The president believes that a $6,700 increase in the monthly advertising budget, combined with an intensified effort by the sales staff, will result in an $84,000 increase in monthly sales. If the president is right, what will be the increase (decrease) in the company’s monthly net operating income?

Answers

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Sales (12,800 units × $20 per unit) $256,000

Variable expenses 153,600 (12)

Contribution margin 102,400

Fixed expenses 114,400 Net operating loss $ (12,000 )

First, we need to calculate the contribution margin ratio and the break-even point in units and dollars:

Contribution margin ratio= unitary CM / Selling price

Contribution margin ratio= total CM / Sales

Contribution margin ratio= 102,400 / 256,000

Contribution margin ratio= 0.4

Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit

Break-even point in units= 114,400 / (20 - 12)

Break-even point in units= 14,300

Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio

Break-even point (dollars)= 114,400 / 0.4

Break-even point (dollars)= $286,000

Now, we need to calculate the effect on the income of increasing the advertising budget:

Effect on income= increase in contribution margin - increase in fixed costs

Effect on income= 84,000*0.4 - 6,700

Effect on income= $26,900 increase

C. the salvage value of the investment at the end of its useful life. D. tax savings generated by depreciation expense. E. the original cost paid for the capital investment.

Answers

Answer:

E

Explanation:

Cash inflows are cash increases in a project

they include :

projected incremental revenues from the project.

cost reductions in operating costs.

the salvage value of the investment at the end of its useful life

tax savings generated by depreciation expense.

they include

the original cost paid for the capital investment.

working capital investment

A project is profitable if cash inflow exceeds cash outflow

Typical cash inflows of a capital investment project do not include the original cost paid for the capital investment.

A capital investment project is regarded as a project that aims at increasing the assets of the business. The inflows in these projects are derived when cash outflows are subtracted from revenues and cash flows of the project.

Therefore,  the original cost that would be paid for the capital investment becomes part of cash outflow from the business, which decreases the total availability of cash.

lannigan Company manufactures and sells a single product that sells for $450 per unit; variable costs are $270. Annual fixed costs are $800,000. Current sales volume is $4,200,000. Compute the current margin of safety in dollars for Flannigan Company

Answers

Answer:

$2,200,000

Explanation:

Margin of safety means by how much sales can fall before a firm starts making a loss.

Margin of safety  = Current Sales - Break even sales

where,

Break even sales = Fixed Cost ÷ Contribution margin ratio

                             = $800,000 ÷ 0.40

                             = $2,000,000

therefore,

Margin of safety  = $4,200,000 - $2,000,000

Suppose Baa-rated bonds currently yield 6.1%, while Aa-rated bonds yield 4.1%. Now suppose that due to an increase in the expected inflation rate, the yields on both bonds increase by 1.0%. What would happen to the confidence index? (Round your answers to 4 decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

Confidence index increases from 0.6721 to 0.7183

Explanation:

The computation of the confidence index is shown below:

Initial Confidence Index is

= Aa-rated bonds yield ÷ Baa-rated bonds yield

= 4.1% ÷ 6.1%

= 0.6721

Since the yields on both bonds increase by 1.0%

So, the confidence index after increase in yield is

= (4.1% + 1%) ÷ (6.1% + 1%)

= 0.7183

So,  Confidence index increases from 0.6721 to 0.7183

Answer:

A. work hours growth and labor productivity growth

Explanation:

An economy is a function of how money, means of production and resources (raw materials) are carefully used to facilitate the demands and supply of goods and services to meet the unending needs or requirements of the consumers.

Hence, a region's or country's economy is largely dependent on how resources are being allocated and utilized, how many goods and services are to be produced, what should be produced, for whom they are to be produced for and how much money are to be spent by the consumers to acquire these goods and services.

Basically, there are four (4) main types of economy and these are;

I. Mixed economy.

II. Free market economy.

III. Traditional economy.

IV. Command economy.

Generally, the sources of economic growth of a country are​ work hours growth and labor productivity growth.

Labor (working) is simply the human capital or workers who are saddled with the responsibility of overseeing and managing all the aspects of production.

A project with an initial investment of $461,300 will generate equal annual cash flows over its 10-year life. The project has a required return of 8.1 percent. What is the minimum annual cash flow required to accept the project

Answers

Answer:

The minimum annual cash flow required to accept the project is:

= $63,883.17

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Initial investment cost of the project = $461,300

Project's estimated life = 10 years

Project's required return rate = 8.1%

The minimum annual cash flow required to accept the project is derived from an online financial calculator as follows:

N (# of periods)  10

I/Y (Interest per year)  8.1

PV (Present Value)  461300

FV (Future Value)  0

Results:

PMT = $63,883.17

Sum of all periodic payments = $638,831.69

Total Interest = $177,531.69

Suppose Skyler invests in an annuity that pays 3.2% annual interest, compounded monthly. If she contributes $155 every month for 10 years, how much interest would she earn during that time

Answers

Answer: $3,286.47

Explanation:

Find the future value of the annuity after 10 years.

Number of periods = 10 * 12 months = 120 months

Interest = 3.2% / 12 = 3.2/12%

Future value of annuity = Annuity * ( (1 + rate)^ number of periods- 1) / rate

= 155 * ( ( 1 + 3.2%/12) ¹²⁰- 1) / 3.2%/12

= $21,886.47

The find the amount that the money would have come to without being invested:

= 155 * 120 months

= $18,600

Interest is:

= 21,886.47 - 18,600

= $3,286.47

Many countries have compulsory military service for men after they leave school. It would be a good idea to adopt this system, for men and possibly women. With increasing job opportunities and career options in various fields people are reluctant to join military. This is becoming a major concern for various countries. There are a few countries where men have to serve military necessarily after completing their education. In my opinion this rule should be there in every country both for men and women. This will not only strengthen armed forces of the country but will also improve health and security of people. Although countries have started using machines more than men during wars, still the importance of human soldiers cannot be neglected. With the growth of finance, marketing and education sectors, people are getting more job opportunities. most importantly the risk of life is not there in these sectors. This is the main reason of people becoming reluctant to join armed forces. If military service is made mandatory, people will not have any option other than joining military for a few years. This will help in strengthening of military. Health is another area where people will be benefitted by joining military. Rigorous exercises and activities help in strengthening both mind and body.
