scoray [572]

Georgia will receive $17,100.

If Georgia was out of work for 19 weeks she would receive 60% of her weekly pay.

In order to calculate 60% you multiply $1,900 x .6 = $1,140.

Georgia’s Disability insurance will pay $1,140 per week after a four week waiting period. She is out for 19 weeks, so with the 4 week waiting period, she will collect benefits for 15 weeks. 15 weeks x $1,140 = $17,100 total.
