Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": None of these.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA) is a U.S. law that requires a paycheck deduction to be paid to Social Security and Medicare. Employers and employees share half the payments. Self-employed people are responsible for the entire tax amount.
