Answer:

The salary after all the increment = $62899.0879

Explanation:

It is given that starting annual salary = $55183

There is given that there are there are three time increment of 0.6 %

So salary after 0.6% increment of 3 times =
55183* (1+(0.6)/(100))^3 = $56182.2656

After that there is other increment of 1.9 % that is 6 times

So salary after this increment =
56182.2656* (1+(1.9)/(100))^6=62899.0879

So the salary after all the increment = $62899.0879
