Respuesta :

Answer:

$7,305.50

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the FICA tax pay in 2005 is shown below:

Medicare = 1.45% × $119,000 = $1,722.50

And, Social security tax = 6.2% × 90,000  = $5,580

So, the FICA tax in 2005 is

= Medicare tax + Social security tax

= $1,722.50 + $5,580

= $7,305.50
