At the time of filing, a construction worker indicated that her employer failed to pay her monthly wages of $3,400, $3,200, $3,600, and $3,475 starting four months prior. It has taken the Ontario Labour Relations Board nine months since the time of filing to gather the needed information and make a judgment in favor of the complainant. If the standard interest rate used in its judgment is 9% compounded monthly, what amount is awarded to the construction worker? When Criss turns 55, 35 years from now, he wants his RRSP savings to pay him the equivalent of $35,000 annually today with 2.4% annual inflation.
