Final answer:
The weekly medical insurance deduction for Shasi Rimiko is $36.77, and the weekly dental insurance deduction is $1.16, which is a total of $37.93 per week. None of the provided options A, B, C, and D match this correct calculation.
Step-by-step explanation:
To calculate the weekly insurance coverage deductions for Shasi Rimiko, we first need to determine how much he and the restaurant are paying annually for medical and dental coverage and then find out how much is subtracted each week from his paycheck.
- Annual cost of medical coverage: $9,560
- Restaurant pays 80% of medical coverage: 0.80 × $9,560 = $7,648
- Shasi’s annual payment for medical coverage: $9,560 - $7,648 = $1,912
- Annual cost of dental coverage: $172
- Restaurant pays 65% of dental coverage: 0.65 × $172 = $111.80
- Shasi’s annual payment for dental coverage: $172 - $111.80 = $60.20
- Weekly deduction for medical coverage: $1,912 / 52 weeks = $36.77
- Weekly deduction for dental coverage: $60.20 / 52 weeks = $1.16
Therefore, the weekly deduction for Shasi Rimiko’s insurance coverage is $36.77 for medical and $1.16 for dental. Hence, option B) Medical: $29.15, Dental: $0.54 is incorrect. Also, option C) Medical: $123.38, Dental: $0.72 is incorrect because the medical is too high and the dental is not $1.16. Option D) Medical: $167.85, Dental: $0.98 has the medical cost too high as well. Among the options provided, the correct answer is A) Medical: $36.77, Dental: $1.16 (Note: This correct calculation differs from all the supplied choices).
