What is the most professional and polite way to phrase a statement of salary requirement?

Asked by La_chica_gomela (12574points) October 10th, 2011

When a job application specifically instructs the applicant to include “salary requirements” in their cover letter, what is the best way to phrase it?

Should the applicant write something like:

“Salary is negotiable, but a figure in the range of $XX,XXX to $XX,XXX per year would be preferred.”

“Minimum salary requirement is $XX,XXX per year.”

Something else?
