[QUOTE="..., post: 4578237, member: 79151"] I'm getting $14.58. 8e^[(0.02)(30)] But the average rate of inflation was higher during that time, about 2.29%, so 8e^[(0.0229)(3)] = $15.90. However, these calculations are meaningless because the contract isn't being negotiated in 2020. It was negotiated in 2018. The average yearly inflation rate between 1988 and 2018 was 2.54%, and this is the scenario I based my original comment on. So[B] 8e^[(0.0254)(30)] = $17.14[/B] Personally, I would have been happy if they could have gotten $15. They take such pride in promoting their "Fight for $15" activities supporting non-unionized fast food workers, that you'd think that they would be able and willing to get $15/hr for its own dues-paying members. You'd think that. But apparently you'd be wrong. [/QUOTE]
