8 What is the typical first year earnings for each position? Assuming each position starts training on Jan 1 st and pay begins after training is completed. To determine the first year pay for each position we determined the minimum amount of training needed in terms of the time in training and the expense incurred. A position that has 6 weeks of training would have only 46 weeks of time on the job earning pay during the year. The pay is based on a typical work week of 40 hours. For Example: 52 weeks 6 weeks of training = 46 weeks. At 40 hours per week in a position that pays $10 per hour, you could expect to earn $18, weeks * $10 per hour * 40 hours per week = $18,400 The expense of training was then subtracted from the amount to show a first year earnings. $18,400 - $2,500 training expense = $15,900 in first year income.
