Question

1. Cheryl Douglas works 43 hours in a week for an exempt salary of $1,827 per week. What are Cheryl's gross weekly earnings?​

Answer 1

$1827

Explanation:

Since Cheryl is said to be paid an exempt salary. Then it can be said that Cheyk does not qualify for minimum wage or overtime pay, Hence, exempt payment is in terms or salary rather than wage. Similarly. Gross earning refers the amount a worker receives as income over a certain period of time. The gross income has not been subjected to tax charges or any form of deduction. Hence, it could be said to be the outright earning paid to an employee before any deduction is made.

Hence, Cheryl's gross weekly earning is $1827 per week.
