If your starting salary is 50000 and you receive a 4 increase at the end of each year how much will you earn over 16 years?

To calculate your total earnings over 16 years with a starting salary of $50,000 and a 4% annual increase, you can use the formula for the future value of a geometric series. The salary for each year can be calculated as follows: Year 1 is $50,000, Year 2 is $50,000 * 1.04, Year 3 is $50,000 * (1.04)^2, and so on up to Year 16. The total earnings over 16 years would be approximately $1,352,000.
