Chapter 5, Problem 5.39PE

(Financial application: find the sales amount) You have just started a sales job in a department store. Your pay consists of a base salary and a commission. The base salary is $5,000. The scheme shown below is used to determine the commission rate.

Sales Amount Commission Rate
$0.01 − $5,000 8%
$5,000.01 − $10,000 10%
$10,000.01 and above 12%

Note this is a graduated rate. The rate for the first $5,000 is at 8%, the next $5,000 is at 1 0%, and the rest is at 12%. If the sales amount is 25,000, the commission is 5,000 * 8% + 5,000 * 10% + 15,000 * 12% = $2,700.

Your goal is to earn $30,000 a year. Write a program that finds out the minimum number of sales you have to generate in order to make $30,000.

Homework You have the row vector (A) that has values from (-100 to 100), write MATLAB codes to: (1) Interchange the first 10 elements with last ten elements. (2) Replace the elements at indices (93,9,17,50) of A with 99. (3) Return the second element and the element before the last of A as a column vector (C1). (4) Extract the first five elements and the last five elements of A and append them as a row vector (R). (5) Set the elements of A with odd indices to zeros(0).
