* Calculation steps:
Step 1 – Calculate the 4% of the 7/1/2019 salary: $100,000 x .04 = $4,000
Step 2 – Divide the increase over 9 months: $4,000/9 = $444.44
Step 3 – Add the monthly increase to the 7/1/2019 monthly rate: $8,333.33 + $444.44 = $8,777.78
Step 4 – Annualize the rate: $8,777.78 x 12 = $105,333.36
Step 5 – Round the annual salary to the nearest $100 for new annual rate: $105,300
Step 6 – Calculate the new 10/1/2019 monthly rate: $105,300/12 = $8,775.00
