Jesse sells advertising pages for a magazine. He is paid a 13.5% commission for each page he sells. A page sells for $1,350. He sold an average of 24 pages a month. What was his commission for the year?

Answer 1

$52,488

Explanation:

The computation of the commission for the year is as follows:

It is given that a 13.5% commission is to be paid for each page that he sold

Here the page sold for $1,350

And, he sold average of 24 pages a month

So his commission for the year is

= $1,350 × 24 × 12 × 13.5%

= $52,488
