The table below gives information about the salaries of high school teachers in five countries in 2009.

The table illustrates the income of high school

teachers

in five

countries

, namely Australia,

Denmark

,

Luxembourg

, Korea, and Japan in the year 2009. The measurement is presented in the US

dollars

. Looking from an

overall

perspective, it is readily apparent that among the five mentioned

countries

,

Luxembourg

's newly hired

teachers

had the best financial status,

while

their counterparts in Japan had the lowest income.

Luxembourg

’s highest payment was

also

the first in the ranking.

However

, the instructors in

Denmark

reached the maximum payment in the fewest

years

. In terms of the

amount

of money gained when starting their jobs,

teachers

in

Luxembourg

are the first in the group, followed by the ones who teach in

Denmark

,

although

Danish

teachers

receive almost half that of

Luxembourg

teachers

(80000

dollars

, and 47000

dollars

in respective order. In the three other

countries

, educators are paid almost 30000

dollars

at

this

level. Considering the salary gained annually, almost the same pattern can be observed, and again

Luxembourg

stands at the top of the list, followed by

Denmark

, and instructors in other regions are paid roughly 50000

dollars

. As can be predicted, in

Luxembourg

, the educators make the maximum

amount

of money,

although

it takes 30

years

for them to get to

this

point. Korean

teachers

receive the second highest

amount

of salary after 37

years

, and

teachers

in other

countries

are paid a maximum

amount

of salary of around 55000,

although

it happens after 34

years

in Japan, but 8 and 9

years

in

Denmark

and Australia, respectively.
