Answer:

A. $2,029.58

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the gross pay for the first half of June is shown below:

= Regional sales × commission percentage + earning × number of months ÷ total number of months in a year

= $103,500 × 0.25% + $42,500 ÷ 12 months × 2 months

= $258.75 + $1,770.83

= $2,029.58

Since it is given that semi monthly, so we take 24 months.
