TASK 9.23 \( \operatorname{So}^{\circ} \) Wages Journal Required: Use the following information to draw up the Wages Journal of Shudder Traders. Makes, relevant entry/ies in the CPJ and post to the ledger. Information for 7 October 20.8 \begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|c|c|} \hline & Normal rate & Overtime hours & \begin{tabular}{c} Medical aid \\ deduction per \\ month \end{tabular} & SITE/PAYE \\ \hline Sipho Wemba & \( R 30 \) & 10 & \( R 500 \) & R144 \\ \hline Rani Sukraj & 30 & 10 & 500 & 14 \\ \hline \begin{tabular}{l} Melody Wyers \\ Elias Tritor \end{tabular} & 20 & 5 & 360 & 64 \\ \hline Elias Truter & 24 & 3 & 360 & 70 \\ \hline \end{tabular} Note: All employees work 8 hours a day over a 5 -day week. Melody Wyers was absent on one day of the week. The overtime rate is calculated at one and half times the normal rate. All employees belong to Star Medical Aid. Contributions are deducted weekly. The employer contributes on a Rand-for-Rand basis towards medical aid. Employees contribute \( 5 \% \) of normal wage towards the Trident Brokers for pension; the employer contributes \( 10 \% \). UIF and Skills Development Levy are both calculated at \( 1 \% \) of gross wage. Wages are paid by direct electronic deposit into the bank accounts of employees on the last day of each week. Payments in respect of deductions are made electronically on the last day of the month.

Step 1
- Sipho Wemba: R30 * 8 hours * 5 days = R1200 - Rani Sukraj: R30 * 8 hours * 5 days = R1200 - Melody Wyers: R20 * 8 hours * 4 days (since she was absent one day) = R640 - Elias Tritor: R20 * 8 hours * 5 days = R800 - Elias Truter: R24 * 8 hours * 5 days = R960 Show more…

Towers Perrin, a New York human resources consulting firm, conducted a survey of 1100 employees at medium-sized and large companies to determine how dissatisfied employees were with their jobs (The Wall Street Journal, January 29,2003 ). Representative data are shown in the file JobSatisfaction. A response of Yes indicates the employee strongly disliked the current work experience. a. What is the point estimate of the proportion of the population of employees who strongly dislike their current work experience? b. $\quad$ At $95 \%$ confidence, what is the margin of error? c. What is the $95 \%$ confidence interval for the proportion of the population of employees who strongly dislike their current work experience? d. Towers Perrin estimates that it costs employers one-third of an hourly employee's annual salary to find a successor and as much as 1.5 times the annual salary to find a successor for a highly compensated employee. What message did this survey send to employers?

Toward the end of the chapter, it was pointed out that a tax on labor income can cause a deadweight loss, just like an excise tax on a good. a. Draw a diagram of a labor market in which the equilibrium wage is $\$ 20$ per hour and total employment is 10,000 workers. On the graph, identify an area that represents total benefits to workers. (Hint: This area will be analogous to producer surplus in a goods market. Think about each point on the labor supply curve, and ask: What is the lowest wage at which this worker would supply labor, compared to the wage they are actually being paid?) b. On the same graph, identify an area that represents total benefits to firms from hiring labor. [Hint: This area will be analogous to consumer surplus in a goods market. Think about each point on the labor demand curve, and ask: What is the highest wage the firm would pay to hire this particular worker, compared to the wage it is actually paying?] c. Draw a second diagram showing the impact of a $\$ 10$ per hour tax on labor income, collected from workers. On this diagram, identify areas that represent, after the tax, each of the following: (1) the total benefits to workers, (2) the total benefits to firms, (3) the government's tax revenue, and (4) the deadweight loss from the tax.
Assuming that the daily wages for workers in a particular industry averages Birr 11.90 per day and the standard deviation is Birr 0.40. If the wages are assumed to be normally distributed, determine what percentage of workers receive wages A. between Birr 10.90 and Birr 11.90 B. between Birr 10.80 and Birr 12.40 C. between Birr 12.20 and Birr 13.10 D. less than Birr 11.00 E. more than Birr 12.95 Is crime rate somehow associated with age? An investigator collected the following data from five sample groups to see the relationship between the two variables: Average age in year (X): 70, 56, 35, 28, 14 Average crime rate (%) (Y): 28, 42, 35, 42, 48 A. Determine the regression line of crime rate on age and interpret it? B. Estimate the % of crime rate for groups of individuals having average age 40. C. Determine the coefficient of correlation and interpret it. Out of 5 male workers and 7 female workers of a factory, a task force consisting of 5 workers is to be formed. What is the probability that the task force will consist of? A. 2 male and 3 female workers? B. all female workers? C. at least 3 male workers. The probability that an item picked at random from the assembly line in a factory will be defective is 0.02. If a sample of 4 is to be selected, then find the probability that A. One will be defective B. At most one will be defective C. At least one will be defective D. Calculate the mean and standard deviation for the distribution.
