Question

Job A pays $24.93 per hour. Job B pays

$21.62 per hour, but has health benefits.
Walter will need to buy health insurance
for $6610 per year if it's not a job benefit.
If Walter expects to work 2,000 hours
during the year, and ignoring taxes, which
job should Walter take to have more
spending cash?

Answer 1

He should take the first job to have more spending money. The first job pays approximately 49,860 dollars, if you subtract the health insurance cost which is 6,610 dollars you get 43,250 dollars, and the second one pays 43,240 dollars so the first one will leave him with 10 more dollars.
