Answer:

1. The average net pay per month increase is $49.

2. The average net pay increase per month is 2.3%.

This question asks us to compare the pay increase to inflation rate.

In order to make this comparison, we need to first determine the average monthly pay increase in dollars.

We calculate that by:

Monthly pay increase in dollars = This year's monthly pay - Last year's monthly pay

Monthly pay increase in dollars = 2225 - 2176 = 49

Next we determine the rate at which the monthly average increased.

We use the following formula to calculate this:

Percentage increase in net pay = \frac{Increase in average monthly pay}{Last year's average monthly pay} * 100

Percentage increase in net pay per month = \frac{49}{2176} * 100

Percentage increase in net pay per month is 2.3%.

We then compare the increase in pay per month to the inflation rate.

If the increase is pay is equal to or greater than the inflation rate, the pay is keeping pace with the cost of living. If the pay rise is less than the inflation rate, the pay is not keeping pace with the cost of living.
