Headland Corporation hired a total of 18 new full-time employees on January 1, 2020. The employees are paid $770 per week, and no changes in this pay are expected for the following year. Each employee earns three weeks of vacation time during 2020, but no new employees take any vacation time during 2020, due to Headland’s company policy that vacations must be earned before they are taken. In 2021, 4 new employees took three weeks of vacation time, and 8 new employees took two weeks’ vacation time.
