knowledgeable about payroll than to find another way or hire someone who is not yet
trained to make payroll which may cause apprehension to our project.

Statistic Formula Used

All data gathered from the questionnaire was tallied and computed in order to
find out the frequency and percentage of the respondents-demographic profile.

The summation of the data gathered was also computed the following
formulas were used.

Percentage: The percentage distribution of a class is the frequency of the class

divided by the total frequency of all classes. The sum percentage distribution of all
classes is clearly 1 or 100 percent. Percentage (%) = M x (100 %) R Where: % =
percentage M = frequency R = total number of respondents.
