The method of pay that results in the most earnings is the second method of pay

In order to determine which method of pay would result in the most earnings ,  the value of each method would be determined

Value of the first option

6% commission on all sales = 6% x  $73,620.

0.06 x  $73,620. = $4,417.20

Value of the second option

Monthly salary of $3,000 plus 2% commission on all sales =  $3,000 + (2% x  $73,620)

$3,000 + (0.02% x  $73,620)

= $3000 + $1472.40

= $4472.40

Value of the third option

Graduated commission of 4% on the first $50,000 in sales and 9% on anything over that.

= (4% x $50,000) + (9% x $23,620)

= $2000 + $2125.80

= $4125.80

Value of the fourth option

Graduated commission of 5% on the first $35,000 in sales and 7% on anything over that.

= (5% x$35,000) + (7% x $38,620)

= $1750 + $2703.40

= $4,453.40
