Sure, let's carefully match each statement with its appropriate term.
1. Getting a salary of [tex]$80,000 per year
- This statement describes a fixed annual income.
- The term for a fixed annual income is "Salary".
- Thus, the match is: 1. Salary
2. Employee compensation that is based on the number of hours worked multiplied by an hourly rate of pay
- This statement describes a pay structure where the total compensation depends on the hours worked and the hourly rate.
- The term for this type of compensation is "Wages".
- Thus, the match is: 2. Wages
3. Employee compensation quoted on an annual basis
- Similar to the first statement, this refers to an annual amount of money that is fixed as income.
- The term for this is also "Salary".
- Thus, the match is: 1. Salary
4. Getting a pay of $[/tex]18 an hour
- This statement specifies an hourly rate of pay, implying that the total pay can vary based on hours worked.
- The term for hourly pay is "Wages".
- Thus, the match is: 2. Wages
Now let's compile these matches into a clear list:
- Getting a salary of [tex]$80,000 per year: 1. Salary
- Employee compensation that is based on the number of hours worked multiplied by an hourly rate of pay: 2. Wages
- Employee compensation quoted on an annual basis: 1. Salary
- Getting a pay of $[/tex]18 an hour: 2. Wages
This provides a clear understanding of how each statement corresponds to either "Salary" or "Wages" based on their descriptions.
