Answer:
Zero,( no raise at all)
Step-by-step explanation:
The total labor cost for the two employees is
=$36,000 + $24,000
=$60,000
If only 5% of increases in payroll is approved, the actual increase
=5/100 x $60,000
=0.05 x $60,000
=$3,000
If the second employee is to get a raise of $3,000 per year, then the first employee will not get any raise.
