First, we need to calculate the total lifetime income for each profession.
For the surgeon:
Total years worked = 30 years
Annual salary = $230,540
Total lifetime income = $230,540 x 30 = $6,916,200
For the pharmacist:
Total years worked = 30 years
Annual salary = $114,950
Total lifetime income = $114,950 x 30 = $3,448,500
To find the difference in lifetime income, we subtract the total lifetime income of the pharmacist from the total lifetime income of the surgeon:
$6,916,200 - $3,448,500 = $3,467,700
Therefore, the answer is C) $3,467,700.
If the surgeon and the pharmacist each worked 30 years, how much more money
does the surgeon make in lifetime income?
A $1,154,620
B $924,720
C $3,467,700
D $115,590
