Answer 1

Answer:

$14,250

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Commission on sales up to $2000 = 15%

Commission on sales from $2000 to $35,000 = 25%

Commission on sales over $35,000 = 30%

Now,

For sales of $54,000

Commission on $2000 = 0.15 × $2000 = $300

For sales $2000 to $35,000 i.e $33,000 = $33,000 × 0.25

= $8,250

For sales over $35,000 to $54,000 i.e $19,000 = 0.30 × $19,000

= $5,700

Therefore,

Total commission = $300 + $8,250 + $5,700

= $14,250
