x = starting salary x + 0.08x = 1.08x 1.08x + 0.05(1.08x) = 1.08x + 0.054x = 1.134x 1.134x - 0.01(1.134x) = 1.134x - 0.01134x = 1.12266x 1.12266x + 0.09(1.12266x) = 1.12266x + 0.1010394x = 1.2236994x 1.2236994x = 89,000 x = 72,730 If you need to show your work :) On Wed, Apr 14, 2010 at 12:06 PM, morgan l <greyk...@gmail.com> wrote: > > StartingSalary * 1.08 * 1.05 * .99 * 1.09 = > > >> Choice 1 >> $71,291 -> $87,238.75 >> Choice 2 >> $108,920 -> $133,285.34 >> Choice 3 >> $71,290 -> $87,237.53 >> Choice 4 >> $72,730 -> $88,999.66 >> Choice 5 >> $72,723 -> $88,991.09 >> >> > > > ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?
