You employ 28 people making an average of $33,000 per year. You want to give every employee a 5% increase for next year. What will be the total increase in your company's annual payroll?

Respuesta :

Solution: We are given:

Number of employees [tex]=28[/tex]

Average earning of employee [tex]\[/tex][tex]33,000[/tex] per year

The total annual payroll of company [tex]=28 \times 33000=924000[/tex]

Now the company wants to give every employee a 5% increase for next year. Therefore, the average earning of employee per year is

[tex]105\% of 33,000=1.05 \times 33,000=34,650[/tex]

The total annual payroll of company for next year [tex]34650 \times 28=970200[/tex]

Therefore, the total increase in company's annual payroll is

[tex]970200-92400=46200[/tex]
