A salesperson earns a weekly salary of $600 plus a commission of 1 percent of sales over $2,000. If he earned $650 in a certain
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

$ 7000

Explanation:

Given data;

Weekly salary of the salesperson = $ 600

Commission earned = 1 % on the sales over $ 2000

The amount earned by the salesman in the week = $ 650

Thus, the commission received = $ 650 - $ 600 = $ 50

Now,

let the amount over $ 2000 for which the commission of $ 50 paid be 'x'

therefore,

1 % of x = $ 50

or

0.01x = $ 50

or

x = $ 5000

Hence, the total sales was of $ 2000 + $ 5000 = $ 7000
