Job A pays $13.00 per hour. Job B pays $11.00 per hour but has health benefits. Health insurance costs $3,400 per year. You expect to work 2,000 hours during the year. Ignoring taxes, which job will leave you with more money at the end of the year?
So we want to know which job will earn us more money, job A or job B. First lets calculate how much money will earn with job A: Ma=13$*2000=26000$. Mb=11$*2000=22000$. Health insurance costs 3400$ per year so while we are working our job A we have to subtract that: so 26000$-3400$=22600$. So on job A we earn 600$ per year more than on job B.
