Answer :

Let's address each part of the question step by step.

1.1.1 Who is Lorna's employer?
- Lorna's employer is "SISOKOLA SONKE'S FINANCIAL SERVICES".

1.1.2 What is Lorna's Identity number?
- Lorna's Identity number is 98020364351988.

1.1.3 Determine the value of (a) if UIF is calculated at 1% of the gross earnings. Show your calculations.
- Step-by-Step Solution:
- First, recognize that UIF (Unemployment Insurance Fund) is 1% of Lorna's gross earnings.
- Lorna's gross earnings for May 2021 is R24 525.
- To find the UIF contribution, we calculate 1% of R24 525.
- This can be expressed as:
[tex]\[ \text{UIF} = \frac{1}{100} \times \text{Gross Earnings} \][/tex]
- Substituting the gross earnings value:
[tex]\[ \text{UIF} = \frac{1}{100} \times 24{,}525 \][/tex]
- This simplifies to:
[tex]\[ \text{UIF} = 245.25 \][/tex]

Therefore, the value of (a) is R245.25.
