Answer
Explanation:
Step1: Calculate sales over quota
Find the amount of sales over the quota for Homer. Subtract the quota from his sales: $12980 - 4200$. $12980-4200 = 8780$
Step2: Calculate commission
Multiply the amount of sales over - quota by the commission rate. The commission rate is $3.2%$ or $0.032$ in decimal form. So, $8780\times0.032$. $8780\times0.032=280.96$
Answer:
$280.96$
