4 steps
  1. Calculate Mrs.

    Havana's monthly medical aid contribution.
    The total medical aid premium is R1 200 per month. The employer contributes R2.00 for every R1.00 Mrs. Havana contributes. This means Mrs. Havana pays 13\frac{1}{3} of the premium, and the employer pays 23\frac{2}{3}.

    Mrs. Havana’s contribution=11+2×R1 200=13×R1 200=R400\text{Mrs. Havana's contribution} = \frac{1}{1+2} \times \text{R}1\,200 = \frac{1}{3} \times \text{R}1\,200 = \text{R}400

    The employer's contribution is 2×R400=R8002 \times \text{R}400 = \text{R}800.

  2. Calculate Mrs.

    Havana's monthly pension fund contribution.
    Mrs. Havana's monthly salary is R17 300. She contributes 7.5% of her monthly salary to the pension fund.

    Mrs. Havana’s pension contribution=7.5%×R17 300=0.075×R17 300=R1 297.50\text{Mrs. Havana's pension contribution} = 7.5\% \times \text{R}17\,300 = 0.075 \times \text{R}17\,300 = \text{R}1\,297.50
  3. Calculate Mrs.

    Havana's total monthly deductions from her salary.
    This is the sum of her medical aid contribution and her pension fund contribution.

    Total monthly deductions=R400+R1 297.50=R1 697.50\text{Total monthly deductions} = \text{R}400 + \text{R}1\,297.50 = \text{R}1\,697.50
  4. Calculate Mrs.

    Havana's annual gross salary.
    Her monthly salary is R17 300.

    Annual gross salary=R17 300×12=R207 600\text{Annual gross salary} = \text{R}17\,300 \times 12 = \text{R}207\,600
    • Mrs. Havana's monthly medical aid contribution: R400\boxed{\text{R}400}
    • Mrs. Havana's monthly pension fund contribution: R1 297.50\boxed{\text{R}1\,297.50}
    • Mrs. Havana's total monthly deductions: R1 697.50\boxed{\text{R}1\,697.50}
    • Mrs. Havana's annual gross salary: R207 600\boxed{\text{R}207\,600}
