roger has three employees who earns $500, $550, and $700, respectively. How much does roger owe for SUTA and FUTA in the first 12 weeks? assume a SUTA rate of $5.3% and a FUTA rate after the company's credit for state unemployment tax of .8%.

Joan earns $2.43 per hour working. If she works for 38 hours, how much money will Joan earn?

To calculate Carla's earnings for the week, we need to consider her regular earnings for 40 hours and her overtime earnings for 7 hours.

Carla earns $8.43 per hour, so her regular earnings for 40 hours would be 40 * $8.43 = $337.20.

To calculate her overtime earnings, we need to determine how much she earns per hour for overtime. Generally, overtime pay is 1.5 times the regular pay rate. Therefore, her overtime pay rate would be 1.5 * $8.43 = $12.645.

For 7 overtime hours, her overtime earnings would be 7 * $12.645 = $88.51.

To find her total earnings for the week, we add her regular earnings and overtime earnings: $337.20 + $88.51 = $425.71.

Therefore, Carla's earnings for that week would be approximately $425.71.

For question 19, to find Lauren's average daily tips, we can add up all the tips she received over the 5 days and then divide by the number of days.

Let's add the tips: $19.75 + $25.30 + $18 + $21.50 + $18.50 = $103.05.

Now, let's divide this total by the number of days, which is 5: $103.05 / 5 = $20.61.

Therefore, Lauren's average daily tips would be approximately $20.61.

To predict her earnings for a 37-hour, 4-day workweek, we need to multiply her average daily tips by the number of days and hours.

Let's calculate her earnings: $20.61 × 4 days × 37 hours = $3,051.64.

Therefore, Lauren would earn approximately $3,051.64 for a 37-hour, 4-day workweek.

For question 20, to find the annual earnings, we can multiply the semimonthly earnings by the number of semimonths in a year.

Since semimonthly means twice a month, there are 12 / 2 = 6 semimonths in a year.

Now, let's calculate the annual earnings: $743.75 × 6 = $4,462.50.

Therefore, the annual earnings would be approximately $4,462.50.

For question 21, to find Erma's annual earnings, we can multiply her biweekly earnings by the number of biweeks in a year.

Since biweekly means every two weeks, there are 52 / 2 = 26 biweeks in a year.

Let's calculate her annual earnings: $516.72 × 26 = $13,434.72.

Therefore, Erma's annual earnings would be approximately $13,434.72.

For question 22, to calculate Terry's total gross pay each pay period, we need to divide her annual earnings by the number of pay periods in a year.

Since she is paid biweekly, there are 52 / 2 = 26 pay periods in a year.

Let's calculate her gross pay each pay period: $22,500 / 26 = $865.38.

Therefore, Terry's total gross pay each pay period would be approximately $865.38.
