Answer:
Job B
Step-by-step explanation:
Job A:
Job A pays $28.59 per hour.
Lauren expects to work 2,000 hours during the year, so Lauren can expect to be paid
[tex]\$28.59\times 2,000=\$57,180[/tex]
Job B:
Job B pays $25.71 per hour.
Lauren expects to work 2,000 hours during the year, so Lauren can expect to be paid
[tex]\$25.71\times 2,000=\$51,420[/tex]
Health insurance costs $6,650. Add health insurance to job B payment:
[tex]\$51,420+\$6,650=\$58,070[/tex]
Since [tex]\$58,070>\$57,180,[/tex] Lauren should take job B
