at your new job, the majority of your earnings come from commission. for every dollar's worth of shoes you sell you receive a 10% commission
in addition, you get daily pay of 19.50 for doing chores such as dusting the display fixtures, straightening stock, and other tasks that keep the
working environment pleasant and organized. these tasks are shared by all the sales staff and take a minimal amount of time.
naturally, you want to know how much you will earn at your new job. for this you need to understand the relationship between three things:
• amount of sales you make in a day
. amount of commission you receive
• amount of earnings you receive
