Question

Lee Company pays its employees on a variable commission scale: 6% on the first $40,000 sales, 7% on sales from $40,001 to $80,000, and 13% on sales of more than $80,000. May West, an employee of Lee, has $230,000 in sales. What commission did May earn?

Answer 1

Answer:

29,900

Explanation:

since the question stated employees who get more than 80,000 get a 13% commission you find 13% of 230,000

=13/100×230,000=29,900
