Answer:
If she earned $10,000 over the past 10 years, then the profit-sharing award represents 2.5% of her annual salary
But if she earned $10,000 only in one year, then the profit-sharing award represents the 25% of her annual salary
Explanation:
If she earned $10,000 over the past 10 years, and we suppose that all payments are equal, then each year she received $1000.
What percentage of her annual salary ($40,000) $1000 represents?
$1000/$40,000=0,025*100= 2.5%
But if she earned $10,000 in one year, then:
$10,000/$40,000= 0,25*100=25%
