Jose makes $10, 000 a month plus some money by commission rates. He gets 6% of everything he sells. If Jose sold $59, 000 worth of items this month, what is his salary for the month?
A
$13, 540
B
$600
C
$4, 140
D
$45, 400
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -To calculate the payable commission, multiply the sales revenue by the sales commission rate. A 10 percent commission rate on a $10, 000 product deal would pay $1, 000 in commission.

Detailed explanation-2: -Straight Commission is calculated to be the person’s wage based solely on sales.

Detailed explanation-3: -To calculate your commission for a specific period, multiply the appropriate commission rate by the base for that period. For example, if you made $30, 000 worth of sales from January 1 to January 15 and your commission rate is 5%, multiply 30, 000 by . 05 to find your commission payment amount of $1, 500.

Detailed explanation-4: -Graduated Commission. The graduated commission approach involves setting up “tiers” where past a predetermined threshold of sales, an individual’s commission rate goes up. For example, individuals may earn 10 percent on their first $10, 000 in sales, 20 percent in their next $20, 000, and so forth.
