Answer:

4.25%

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Calculate the commission paid</u>

<em>Commission = Gross earning - base salary</em>

<em>Commission = 441.3 - 375</em>

Commission = 66.3

<u>Step 2: Calculate the commission sales</u>

<em>Commission sales = Total sales - quota sales</em>

<em>Commission sales = 6560 - 5000</em>

Commission sales = 1560

<u>Step 3: Calculate the rate of commission</u>

<em>x% of 1560 = 66.3</em>

<em>x% * 1560 = 66.3</em>

<em>x% = 0.0425</em>

x = 4.25%

Therefore, the rate of commission was 4.25%.

The amount of profit, p, you earn by selling knives,k, can be determined by:p=200k-500. A) determine the constraints on profit a

0≤k. Knives sold cannot be negative.

So the range of profit or p is:

p=[-500, +oo)

Profit increases as the number of knives sold increases.  $200 more profit is gained by each sale of a knife.

4000=200k-500

4500=200k

k=22.5

Since k is for knives sold, it must be an integer value, so a $4000 profit is not possible.  At 22, p=3900 and at 23, p=4100

The cost of a stove to a store owner was $500, and she sold the stove for $1080. What was her percent of profit based on cost?
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

116%

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost Price (C. P.) = $500

Selling Price (S. P.) = $1080

Profit = SP - CP = $1080 - $500 = $580

Profit percent

=  \frac{Profit}{CP}  \times 100 \\  \\  =  \frac{580}{500}  \times 100 \\  \\  =  \frac{580}{5}  \\  \\  = 116 \%
