thats not right

Answer 3

Kris's commission for the $25,000 sale that was billed during this pay period will be 4% of $25,000, which is 0.04 * $25,000 = $<<0.04*25000=1000>>1000.
His gross pay for this period will be his base salary of $80,000 plus the commission of $1000, which is $80,000 + $1000 = $<<80000+1000=81000>>81000.

Since the $25,000 sale that was not billed until after the pay period ended, Kris will not be receiving the commission for that sale in this pay period.
So, Kris's gross pay for this period is $81,000. Answer: \boxed{81000}.

Answer 4

Kris's commission for the $25,000 sale that was billed during this pay period will be 4% of $25,000, which is 0.04 * $25,000 = $1,000.
His gross pay for this period will be his base salary of $80,000 plus the commission of $1,000, which is $80,000 + $1,000 = $81,000.

Since the $25,000 sale that was not billed until after the pay period ended, Kris will not be receiving the commission for that sale in this pay period.
So, Kris's gross pay for this period is $81,000. Answer: A. $1,000.

Answer 5

I apologize for the incorrect response. Let's re-evaluate the calculations:

Kris's commission for the $25,000 sale that was billed during this pay period will be 4% of $25,000, which is 0.04 * $25,000 = $1,000.

Kris's gross pay for this period will be his base salary of $80,000 plus the commission of $1,000, which is $80,000 + $1,000 = $81,000.

Since the $25,000 sale that was not billed until after the pay period ended, Kris will not be receiving the commission for that sale in this pay period.

Therefore, Kris should expect his gross pay this period to be $81,000. Answer: $81,000.
