\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"0.105%2A18500=1942.5\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So in other words, he received an additional $1,942.5. Now add that onto $18,500\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"18500%2B1942.5=20442.5\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So his new salary is $20,442.5 a year\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
