Bill Mason is considering two job offers. Job 1 pays a salary of $41,300 with $5,525 of nontaxable employee benefits. Job 2 pays

Answer:

To Calculate the monetary value of both jobs, you would have to calculate the percent tax rate of each salary and add the nontaxable benefit after taxes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Reminder: since the 25% is a tax rate which we need to subtract from the salary, 75% would be what is left over from the salary after taxes.

Job 1: Job 1 pays a salary of $41,000 and $5,525 of nontaxable benefits. So we calculate the 75% that is left after taxes and add the benefits afterwards.

$(41,000 * 0.75) + 5,525 = 36,275$

So the monetary value of Job 1 would be $36,275

Job 2: Job 2 pays a salary of $40,400 and $7,125 of nontaxable benefits. So we calculate the 75% that is left after taxes and add the benefits afterwards.

$(40,400*0.75) + 7,125 = 37,425$
