Answer:

He should choose the option that pays $2000 plus 2% of sales

With option 1 he would make $1550 to $1850

With option 2 he would make $2100 to $2200

Explanation:

We will calculate the minimum and maximum salary for every option. So, if sales are $5000, the salary with the first option will be:

$1250 + 6%(sales) = $1250 + 6%($5000)

= $1250 + $300

= $1550

If the sales are $10,000, then the salary will be:

$1250 + 6%(sales) = $1250 + 6%($10,000)

= $1250 + $600

= $1850

In the same, for the second option we get:

If the sales are $5000, then the salary will be:

$2000 + 2%(sales) = $2000 + 2%($5000)

= $2000 + $100

= $2100

If the sales are $10,000, then the salary will be:

$2000 + 2%(sales) = $2000 + 2%($10,000)

= $2000 + $200

= $2200

So, no matter the sales, the second option $2000 plus 2% of sales will always result in a better salary.

Therefore, the answers are:

He should choose the option that pays $2000 plus 2% of sales

With option 1 he would make $1550 to $1850

With option 2 he would make $2100 to $2200
