Answer: the employee must make sales of $32000
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the total sales that the employee makes in a month.
One employee of a computer store is paid a base salary of $2,000 a month plus an 8% commission on all sales over $7,000 during the month. This means that if the employee makes sales of $x in a month, his total earnings for that month would be
2000 + 8/100(x - 7000)
= 2000 + 0.08(x - 7000)
= 2000 + 0.08x - 560
= 0.08x + 1440
Therefore, for the employee to earn
a total of $4,000 for the month, the amount of sales would be
0.08x + 1440 = 4000
0.08x = 4000 - 1440
0.08x = 2560
x = 2560/0.08
x = $32000
Answer: 40%
Step-by-step explanation:
700 - 500 = 200
200 / 500 = 40%
