Answer:

a.

Social Security = $9672

Medicare = $2262

b.

State Unemployment Tax = $7956

Federal Unemployment Tax = $42

Step-by-step explanation:

a.

Suzie's gross pay (before tax) by end of week 52 is:

3000 * 52 = 156,000

Social Security = 0.062 * 156,000 = $9672

and

Medicare = 0.0145 * 156,000 = $2262

b.

State unemployment tax is 5.1% on yearly salary (52 weeks).

So

State Unemployment Tax = 0.051 * 156,000 = $7956

and

Federal Unemployment Tax = 0.006 * 7000 = $42
