FUTA = $9 and SUTA = $37.5

Explanation:

given data

earnings prior = $12,400

earns = $1,500

credit reduction = 0.6%

tax rate = 2.5%

solution

so we know that up to $7000 the employer has to pay FUTA

and here salaries and wages earned = $1500

so FUTA will be paid = 0.6% of $1500

FUTA = $9

so

SUTA will be = 2.5% of $1500

SUTA = $37.5

so

FUTA = $9 and SUTA = $37.5
