<span>Mike will earn $2,400,000 for the year. Social security withholds 6.2% which equals $148,800, though Social security has a maximum base amount of $118,500. So the total amount withheld for Social Security will be $118,500. Medicare withholds 1.45% which equals $34,800. So the total amount withheld for Medicare will be $34,800. The total withheld from both Social Security and Medicare would be $153,300.</span>
Answer:
$9.6 million
Explanation:
The amount Laramie would record in its books of account in respect of the land acquisition cost is the sum of the cash paid now and the notes payable .
That effectively gives acquisition cost of $9.6 million ($2.9 million+$6.7 million).
The interest payable on the notes payable of $6.7 million would be treated as expense in the income statement of years 2021 and 2022 respectively without being added to the acquisition cost since it is a revenue expense and should not be capitalized.
Answer:
Instructions are listed below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
A friend of Mr. Richards recently won a law suit for $30 million. They can either take the payments over 10 years or settle today for cash of $25 million. Mr. Richard is optimistic that he can earn a 6% return on the money and that they should settle for $25 million today and he will invest it for them.
First, we need to find the present value of the 30 million.
To do that we need to calculate the final value.
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= annual deposit
FV= {3,000,000*[(1.06^10)-1]}/0.06= 39,542,385
PV= FV/(1+i)^n= 39,542,385/1.06^10= 22,080,261
B) Now we know that the present value of option B is higher. One dollar today is better than one dollar tomorrow. It is better to receive the money now to invest it.
