then, what is the total annual premium for this​ insurance=?

per worker insurance policy premium => 37000/100*10.57

                           =$3910.9 

4 workers insurance policy premium=4*per worker insurance policy premium

                                                        =4*3910.9

secretary insurance policy premium= 24000/100*1.31

                                                        =$314.4

 total annual premium for this​ insurance=15643.6+314.4

                                                               =$15958 (Answer)
