B. $[/tex]\[tex]$ 48,500$[/tex]
C. [tex]$\$[/tex] 53,500[tex]$
D. $[/tex]\[tex]$ 56,000$[/tex]



Answer :

Let's calculate the total income Amy can expect from her job offer, including the benefits.

1. Annual Salary:
Amy's annual salary is given as [tex]$48,500. 2. 401(k) Matching: Amy's employer is offering a 401(k) match benefit of up to $[/tex]2,500 per year. This means the employer will contribute an additional [tex]$2,500 to Amy's 401(k) account annually. 3. Total Income with Benefits: To find the total income with benefits, we will add the annual salary to the 401(k) match benefit: \[ \text{Total Income with Benefits} = \text{Annual Salary} + \text{401(k) Match} \] Plugging in the numbers: \[ \text{Total Income with Benefits} = \$[/tex]48,500 + \[tex]$2,500 \] Therefore: \[ \text{Total Income with Benefits} = \$[/tex]51,000
\]

So, Amy can expect an income with benefits of [tex]$51,000. Therefore, the answer is not one of the choices provided which suggests there might be an error in the options. However, based on the given details, the correct total is: $[/tex]51,000.
