Multiple Choice

Why might it be beneficial for a hairstylist to rent a booth at a salon rather than work as a salaried employee?

Renting a booth allows the hairstylist to operate as an independent contractor, giving them control over their schedule and the ability to keep more of their earnings.

Booth renters are guaranteed a fixed monthly income regardless of the number of clients they serve.

Renting a booth means the salon owner is responsible for providing all supplies and marketing for the hairstylist.

Booth renters are not required to pay any taxes on their earnings.

Verified step by step guidance

Understand the key difference between being a salaried employee and an independent contractor. A salaried employee works under the control of the employer, while an independent contractor operates their own business and has more autonomy.

Analyze the benefits of renting a booth as an independent contractor. This includes having control over your schedule, setting your own prices, and keeping a larger portion of your earnings after expenses.

Evaluate the incorrect statements in the problem. For example, the claim that booth renters are guaranteed a fixed monthly income is false because their income depends on the number of clients they serve.

Clarify the responsibilities of booth renters. They are typically responsible for their own supplies, marketing, and other business expenses, contrary to the statement that the salon owner provides these.

Address the tax implications. Booth renters are required to pay taxes on their earnings, including self-employment taxes, which is another incorrect statement in the problem.
