. A salesman is paid a salary of sh. 25,000 and a commission of 10%, of the sale worth above sh. 50,000 he made during the month. In the month of November, he sold goods worth 150,000/ = in that month. How much in total did he make that month?
First, we calculate the commission he earned on the sale above sh. 50,000:
Commission = 10% of (150,000 - 50,000)
Commission = 10% of 100,000
Commission = 0.10 * 100,000
Commission = 10,000
Now, we calculate his total income for the month of November:
Total Income = Salary + Commission
Total Income = 25,000 + 10,000
Total Income = 35,000
Therefore, the salesman made a total of sh. 35,000 in the month of November.
