Wait, can you really combine them like that? Seems off.

I think it's Thursday for the $55k and Friday for the $110k.

I thought we had to deposit each amount separately, but I can't remember if they can be combined. I guess Thursday is the deadline for the first one, but what about the second?

I feel like the $55,000 from Tuesday has to be in by Thursday, but I'm confused about the $110,000 from Wednesday. Does it go in the same day or later?

I remember practicing a similar question where we had to combine liabilities. I think we might need to deposit both amounts by Thursday, but I can't recall the exact rules.

I think the semiweekly deposit schedule means we have to pay the taxes by the following Thursday for the Tuesday liability. But I'm not sure about the Wednesday one.

I'm pretty confident the answer is B. The liabilities are incurred on Tuesday and Wednesday, so they need to be deposited on Friday and the next Wednesday.

Wait, is the question asking for the total amount to be deposited or the individual deposit amounts? I'm a bit confused.

Okay, I think I got this. The taxes need to be deposited on the next business day after the liability is incurred, so the answer must be B.

Hmm, not sure if I should add the two liabilities together or deposit them separately. Let me think this through carefully.

This seems straightforward, just need to figure out the deposit schedule based on the semiweekly liability amounts.
