$1,956.80

Calculate 9% of 6,000 and 14% of anything over 6,000:

(.09 * 6,000) + (.14* 10,120)

540+1416.80 = $1956.80

Answer:

$1956.80

Explanation:

Sales = 16120

For his first 6000= 9%

Subsequent sales over $6,000 =16120-6,000= 10,120 at 14%

To calculate his commission

we first get the commission on his first $6,000= 9/100 *6,000= $540

Then we calculate the commission for the subsequent sales above 6,000

= 14/100* 10120= $1416.8

Total commision at the end of the month= $540 +$1416.80

=$1956.80
