Question

Victor sells wheelchairs. During a month, he earns 11% commission on the first $5,000 and 14% on all sales over $5,000. How much commission will he earn during a month in which his total sales are $14,000?

Answer 1

$1810 because.....
11% of the first 5000 = $550
he earned 14 % on the rest that means 9000
14 % of 9000 is 1260
1260+550= 1810
