First, find the gradient of line A. We know that the line passes through the points (1, 3) and (4, 9). To calculate the gradient, find the difference in the y coordinates and the difference in the x coordinates, and then divide the y value by the x value. 9 - 3/4 - 1 = 6/3 = 2. The gradient of line A is 2.
One government expert calculated that a construction worker earning $31,200 a year before taxes would be left with an annual net compensation of $10,660.80 if paid as an independent contractor, compared to $21,885.20 if paid properly as an employee.
Independent contractors are not placed on an employerâs payroll; instead, the independent. contractor invoices the client for work performed and the client pays the independent. contractor through Accounts Payable. The client does not withhold federal, state, and. local taxes from the payment, and the independent contractor is responsible for satisfying. all tax obligations. All income earned during the course of a calendar/tax year is reported.
