Asteria earned a $25,500 salary as an employee in 2012. how much should her employer have withheldfrom her paycheck for fica taxes (rounded to the nearest whole dollar amount)? $370$1,071$1,441$3,392

$1951 dollars.

Explanation:

FICA taxes is the money taken from the employees in their paycheck to pay Social Security retirement and Medicare benefits. FICA is comprised by 6.2%  of Social Security tax and 1.45% medicare tax, making a total of 7.65% in taxes

Asteria earned a 25,500 salary as an employee. We need to find out how much her employer withheld from her paycheck for FICA taxes. In other words, we need to calculate the 7.65% of 25,500 to know how much it was withheld from her in taxes.

To do this we can use a rule of three

25500 100%

x 7.65%

x = 25,500 (7.65)/100 = 1950.75 = 1951

Therefore, the amount withheld from her for FICA taxes was $1951 dollars.

you can lose ranking 2 ways.

1) you don't have enough points due to you expending them by asking questions/your answers are deleted.

2) your brainliest's expired. this means that brainliests, once they exceed the 30 day limit, expires. this is to ensure that you continue to contribute into the community at a constant rank if you want to continue to have/exceed the rank you have right now.

if you go to profile, and click "show more information" located on the bottom left of the box with your information (on top of the questions answered, questions asked, and friends), you will be given the following information (example):

member since : 02/13/2017, 18: 11

questions answered: 9741

questions asked: 162

no. of brainliest answers: 1575

brainliest answers in last 30 days: 10

warnings: 0 view

questions/answers reported: 2637

questions/answers incorrectly reported: 64

look at the "brainliest answers in the last 30 days". this is the one that will affect your rank other than your points. again, once your brainliest expires (was earned 31+ days ago), it will not be counted.
