I need help with Commission Answer by josmiceli(19441) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Here's a simple commission example:
A salesperson gets a 1% commission
on all the sales he/she makes
(1)
The sales total $1,000
The commission is $10
-------------------
(2)
The sales total $3,000
The commission is $30
--------------------
The commission is like a bonus that is
tied to how much sales he/she makes
Hope this helps
---------------------
For your problem,
Commission =
Total pay = salary + commission
Total pay =
$53,600
