McKenzie sells textbooks. She receives 7% on her first $1,000 in sales and 15% on the balance of her sales. How much would she earn in commission if her sales in one month were $14,500? Enter your answer as a dollar amount rounded to the nearest cent. Do not type a dollar sign symbol in the box.

Respuesta :

The commission would be $2095.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Commission on first $1000 = 7%

Amount of commission = 0.07*1000 = $70

Worth of sold items = $14,500

We will subtract $1000 from it.

Balance = 14500-1000 = $13500

Commission on balance = 15% = 0.15

Amount of commission = 0.15*13500

Amount of commission = $2025

Total commission = 70+2025 = $2095

The commission would be $2095.
