Question

The table below shows the typical hours worked by employees at a company. A new employee is offered an annual salary of $37,000. Hourly employees get paid $14 per hour, but get $21 per hour for each hour over 40 hours. Should the new employee choose the salaried or hourly pay? Explain your reasoning

Answer 1

Can you show the table please?

Answer 2

Explanation:

if you worked 46 hours : 40(14) + 6(21) = $686 The annual earnings are 52(686) = $35,672

The salary pay is more than the hourly pay based on the typical hours worked each week given in the table

so they should choose salary pay.
