Answer:

Actually, your correct answer is C. just took the test :)

Answer:

Option c. $94,060 is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Nika earns a gross pay = $73,000

Her total employee benefits = 22% of 73,000

[tex]\frac{22}{100}[/tex] × 73,000

= 0.22 × 73,000 = $16,060

Now, add the benefits to the salary  = 73000 + 16060 = $89060

and now add the $5000 raise = 89060 + 5000 = $94,060

Nika's total employment compensation would be  $94060.

Option c. $94,060 would be her total employment compensation.
