Question

6.Jan Ballard earns a weekly salary of $350 as a receptionist for a local doctor's office. Next month she is being promoted to Office Manager and will be paid $895 semi-monthly. How much more per year will Jan earn as Office Manager rather than receptionist?

Answer 1

She earns as receptonist:

1month: (R)=$350

In a year she earns:

`R\cdot12\text{months}=350\cdot12=4200`

In a year as receptionist she earns $4200

------------------------------------------------------------------------

She will earns as Office Manager:

2months: (O)=$895

In a year she earns:

`O\cdot\frac{12\text{months}}{2}=895\cdot(12)/(2)=895\cdot6=5370`

In a year as Office Manager she earns $5370

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

She will earns as office Manager rather than receptionist: $1170 more

`O-R=5370-4200=1170`
