1 answer

To calculate the employee's salary at the end of the second year with the company, we need to find 3% of the current salary and add it to the current salary.

Salary at the end of the first year:
40,000 + (40,000 * 0.03) = 40,000 + 1,200 = 41,200

Salary at the end of the second year:
41,200 + (41,200 * 0.03) = 41,200 + 1,236 = 42,436

Therefore, the employee's salary at the end of the second year with the company will be $42,436.
