Recently, the owner of a trader joe's franchise decided to change how she compensated her top manager. last year, she paid him a fixed salary of $65,000 and her store made $130,000 in profits (not counting payment to her top manager). she suspected the store could do much better and feared the fixed salary was causing her top manager to shirk on the job

Respuesta :

Net earning for owner after payment to top manager, last year = $(130,000 - 65,000) = $65,000

This year, out of the forecast profit of $270,000, Owner has to pay to the top manager = $35,000 + 16% x $270,000

= $(35,000 + 43,200) = $78,200

Net money earned by owner this year = $(270,000 - 78,200) = $191,800

Change in net owner's earning = $(191,800 - 65,000) = $126,800
