They have two car payments totaling $500 a month and one credit card with a minimum payment of $50 a month. What is their combined gross monthly income

Respuesta :

Answer:

$1,411.25

Explanation:

The computation of the combined gross monthly income is shown below:

The earnings of Jose = $23.50 × 40 hours = $940

And, the earnings of Zola is

= $21.50 × 40 hours + 5 hours × $21.50

= $860 + $161.25

The total earnings is

= $940 + $860 + $161.25

= $1,961.25

And, the expenses are

= $500 + $50

= $550

So the combined gross monthly income is

= $1,961.25 - $550

= $1,411.25
