Q:

You are considering 2 jobs. One job pays $350 per week plus 2% commission on all sales. The second job pays $1,200 per month and 2.5% commission on all sales. Assuming sales of $1,000,000 during the year, which job pays the best

Accepted Solution

A:
If the year is 52 weeks long (the average amount of weeks in a year). 
$350.00*52= $18,200.00
$1200.00*12= $14,400.00 
2.5% of 1,000,000=25,000  
2% of 1,000,000=20,000  
$18,200.00+20,000= $38,200.00
$14,400.00+25,000= $39,400.00
The second (2nd) job pays better.
