To calculate the annual salary for each job, we'll first determine the total monthly salary and then add any applicable bonuses.

First Job:

  • Monthly Salary: $4200
  • Annual Bonus: $4500

Annual salary = (Monthly Salary × 12) + Annual Bonus Annual salary = ($4200 × 12) + $4500 Annual salary = $50,400 + $4500 Annual salary = $54,900

Second Job:

  • Monthly Salary: $3100
  • Rent Contribution: $600 (monthly)
  • Annual Bonus: $500

Total monthly income for the second job = Monthly Salary + Rent Contribution Total monthly income = $3100 + $600 = $3700

Annual salary = (Total Monthly Income × 12) + Annual Bonus Annual salary = ($3700 × 12) + $500 Annual salary = $44,400 + $500 Annual salary = $44,900

Summary:

  • First Job Annual Salary: $54,900
  • Second Job Annual Salary: $44,900
