To calculate the Annual Reserve Pay (\(A\)):
\[ A = M \times N \]
Where:
Annual reserve pay refers to the total amount of money that a reservist earns over the course of a year. This pay is typically calculated based on the monthly reserve pay and the number of months the reservist is active or on duty. Reservists are members of the military reserve forces who serve part-time while maintaining a civilian career. They are called to active duty as needed and receive compensation for their service during training periods, drills, and active duty assignments.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ A = 1500 \times 12 = 18000 \]
The Annual Reserve Pay (A) is $18,000.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ A = 2000 \times 10 = 20000 \]
The Annual Reserve Pay (A) is $20,000.
