Jax was in a terrible snowboarding accident and was out of work for 6 months. It was quite the struggle for him as he was on disability leave from his employment. His employer was a small business and did not have disability insurance, so while no income was coming in, his monthly bills and expenses continued along with the significant physiotherapy bills. When Jax was finally able to return to work, he was determined to ensure that he had a sufficient emergency fund set aside. Jax's disposable after-tax income is $75,100. Prior to the accident Jax always saved $600/month for a big trip each year for snowboarding in Colorado while everything else covered his expenses. Jax knows that financial planners recommend savings to cover 3 to 6 months' worth of expenses for an emergency fund. Under this recommendation, what is the maximum emergency fund Jax should have? Select one: a. $41,150 b. $37,550 c. $33,950 d. $16,975 e. $18,775
