Question

Kim's business earns $10,000 per month. Kim's non-employee expenses are $3,000 per month. If Kim wants $2,000 in profit per month, how many employees can Kim have if each employee costs $1,000 per month?

Answer 1

Answer:

Kim's business earns $10,000 per month.

Kim's non-employee expenses are $3,000 per month.

If Kim wants $2,000 in profit per month, then the maximum amount Kim can spend for employee:

10000 - 3000 - 2000 =5000

If each employee costs $1,000 per month, Kim can recruit 5000/1000 = 5 as the maximum number of employees.

Hope this helps
