Expert Solution
A. Find his total salary and commission for June.

JUNE SALES = $48,500

SALARY FOR JUNE = $900

 

COMMISSION CALCULATION

( A ) 2% ON ALL SALES

= 2% X $48,500 = $970

( B ) 1.8 % ON SALES ABOVE $17,500

= 1.8 % X ($48,500 - $17,500) = $558

 

TOTAL COMMISSION = $970 + $558 = $1,528

TOTAL SALARY = $900 + $970 + $558 = $2,428
