A salesman’s terms were changed from a flat commission of 5% on all his sales to a fixed salary of Rs. 1,000 plus 2.5% commission on all sales exceeding Rs. 4,000. If his remuneration as per the new scheme was Rs. 600 more than by the first scheme, what were his sales worth?
Answer: (c)
Let his sales be worth Rs. x.
Then, 1000 + 2.5 % of (x – 4000) = 5% of x + 600

2.5 x + 10000 = 40,000
$x = {30,000}/2.5 = 12,000$
