Explanation:

For Question 14:

Step1: Calculate daily earnings

$\text{Daily pay} = 8 \times 13.65 = 109.20$

Step2: Calculate weekly earnings (a)

$\text{Weekly pay} = 6 \times 109.20 = 655.20$

Step3: Confirm daily earnings (b)

$\text{Daily pay} = 8 \times 13.65 = 109.20$

Step4: Calculate 4-week pay (c)

$\text{4-week pay} = 4 \times 655.20 = 2620.80$

Step5: Calculate annual pay (d)

$\text{Annual pay} = 52 \times 655.20 = 34070.40$

Gross pay is the total amount earned before any deductions (like taxes, insurance, or retirement contributions) are taken out. Net pay is the actual amount an employee receives after all required deductions are subtracted from gross pay; it is the "take-home" pay.

Step1: Calculate (a) gross pay

$\text{Gross pay} = 40 \times 14.89 = 595.60$

Step2: Calculate (b) gross pay

$\text{Gross pay} = 25 \times 12.66 = 316.50$

Step3: Calculate (c) gross pay

$\text{Gross pay} = 48 \times 13.61 = 653.28$

Step4: Calculate (d) gross pay

$\text{Gross pay} = 40 \times 13.01 = 520.40$

Step5: Calculate (e) gross pay

$\text{Gross pay} = 160 \times 12.94 = 2070.40$

Step6: Calculate (f) gross pay

$\text{Gross pay} = 180 \times 13.25 = 2385.00$

Step7: Calculate (g) gross pay

$\text{Gross pay} = 15 \times 12.30 = 184.50$

Step8: Calculate (h) gross pay

$\text{Gross pay} = 20 \times 15.00 = 300.00$

Step9: Calculate (i) gross pay

$\text{Gross pay} = 30 \times 13.65 = 409.50$

Answer:

a) $\$655.20$
b) $\$109.20$
