Easy question worth 10 points

A company pays sales staff a monthly commission of:
4% on the first $15,000 of sales
6% on the next $20,000 of sales
7.5% on all sales above $35,000
What amount would Tony earn if his sales for a month were $41,000?

Answer 1

Answer:

Tony earned $2,250 for the month.

Step-by-step explanation:

Tony sold $41,000 during the month.

Commission on the first $15,000 = 4% * 15,000 = $600

Commission on the next $20,000 = 6% x 20,000 = $1,200

Commission on the final $6,000 = 7.5% x 6,100 = $450

Total commission is $2,250.
