As a new sales employee you are given two salary structures to choose from. The first option has a base salary of $1400 per month plus a 6% commission (bonus) on
sales made. The second option has a base salary of $1100 per month plus an 8%
commission on the sales made.
Let z represent the sales amount and let y represent the monthly income.

The indifference point between the two options is $15,000 in sales.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the indifference point, first, we need to use structure the monthly income formula for each option:

Option 1:

y= 1,400 + 0.06z

Option 2:

y= 1,100 + 0.08z

Now, we equal both formulas and isolate z:

1,400 + 0.06z= 1,100 + 0.08z

300= 0.02z

$15,000= z

The indifference point between the two options is $15,000 in sales.

$5.41

step-by-step explanation:

$20 - $14.51 = $5.49.

6,250

step-by-step explanation:

to get the area, multiply 360 by 160.(57,600)

to find out how many bags of fertilizer it will take, first figure out how many square feet one bag can hold. divide 1000 by 8(125) to get the unit rate(how many square feet one pound of fertilizer can hold)and multiply it by 50(6250). if i haven't made a mistake, that is the answer.
