Kevin spends most of his time on planning

Explanation:

Planning is considering the activities that an organization needs to undertake to achieve its objectives as well as efficient and effective utilization of resources in carrying out those activities.

Efficiency and effectiveness are very important because the organization is in business in order to maximize the wealth of its founders, which can only be achieved by making sure that organization avoids wastefulness  while also deploying the least possible resources in a given circumstance

Job A $65,000
-$5,416.66 Gross Income Monthly
-$95.00 Health Insurance
-$40.00 Life Insurance
-$666.66 Deduction for IRA per month

$4,615.00 Gross Income per month less deductions

Job B $64,000 Annual
-$5,333.33 Monthly Gross Income
--$105.00 Monthly Health Insurance
-$50.00 Monthly Life Insurance
-$666.66 Monthly IRA

$4,511.67 Monthly Gross left


Job A
$3,250 = 5% of $65,000
$8,000 + $3,250 = $11,250 paid into IRA each year

Job B
$5,760. 00 = 9% of $64,000
$8,000 + $5,760 = $13,760 paid into IRA EACH YEAR

So A pays $1,000 more per year , but B pays more into IRA of $2,510 extra per year.


There is no difference in health insurance other than 1 cost more than the other and the same applies to the life insurance.

When you retire, quit, or transfer jobs, then life insurance usually cancels, so no more life insurance and with health insurance may continue on the employers policy under (Cobra) which is $395 per month on A and $505.00 on B for up to 18 months.

The key is the IRA since you keep it till you retire in your own account, thus will have more money invested each year to accumulate to live on.
