To calculate the amount of commission, we need to multiply the sales by the commission rate.
Commission = Sales * Commission Rate
Commission = $3,480.75 * 0.08
Commission = $278.86
To calculate the gross earnings, we need to add the salary and commission.
Gross Earnings = Salary + Commission
Gross Earnings = $225 + $278.86
Gross Earnings = $503.86
Therefore, Jan Yarrow's commission for the week is $278.86 and her gross earnings are $503.86.
The sales clerks of Teresa's Treasures are paid a salary of $225 per
