Three salesmen work for the same company, selling the same product. And, although they are all paid on a weekly basis, each salesman earns his paycheck differently. Salesman A works strictly on commission. He earns $65 per sale, with a maximum weekly commission of $1,300. Salesman B earns a weekly base salary of $300, plus a commission of $40 per sale. There are no limits on the amount of commission he can earn. Salesman C does not earn any commission. His weekly salary is $900. The following table shows the number of sales each salesman had during the first three weeks of this month.

Respuesta :

Based on the amount that both Salesmen A and B earn per sale, the number of sales they both had was 12 sales.

How many sales did Salesmen A and B have?

Sales commission is a key aspect of sales compensation. It's the amount of money a salesperson earns based on the number of sales they have been able to make.

We are told that;

Salesman A gets $65 per sale.

Salesman B gets $300 and $40 per sale.

Assuming the number of sales to take them both to the same amount is x, the relevant formulas would be:

65x = 300 + 40x

Rearranging gives;

65x - 40x = 300

25x = 300

x = 300/25

x = 12 sales

The amount that salesman A earned is = 65 * 12 = $780

The amount that salesman B earned is = 300 + (40 * 12) = $780
