AMORTIZATION WITH EQUAL REGULAR PAYMENTS

1. Zyrus buys a brand new laptop worth P62,500. He pays 20% of the cost as down payment. He agrees to pay for
the remaining balance through installment provided that his property of the same value will serve as a collateral
in case of non-payment. The balance at 12% compounded monthly is to be settled by making equal payments
every end of the month for half a year. Prepare an amortization table. (Round off to 2 decimal places)

COMMISSIONS, OVERRIDES, ALLOWANCES, AND GROSS EARNINGS

2. Ford is paid an annual salary of P132,000 plus commission on all sales above his quota of P20,000 a month
according to the following schedule: 1% on the first P10,000; 2% on the second P10,000; and 4% on sales above
quota exceeding the foregoing P20,000. In addition, he is granted transportation allowance of P1,000 per
month. Compute for his monthly gross earnings if he sells a total of P44,500 for the month.

Annual Salary P132,000

Monthly salary = = = P11,000

Excess = Total sales Quota = P44,500 P20,000 = P24,500

BUSMATH 01 | Business Math 1

 Commission:
P10,000 x 0.01 = P100
Excess = P24,500
P10,000 x 0.02 = P200
P 4,500 x 0.04 = P180

Total Commission P480

Gross Earnings = Basic Monthly Salary + Commission + Allowance

= P11,000 + P480 + P1,000
= P12,480

3. Candice is a sales manager receiving a monthly salary of P17,000, a commission of 5% on her sales, and a
monthly transportation allowance of P5,000. She is also given an override of 1% on her mens sales. For the
month of August, Candice sold a total of P100,000. Her men sold a total of P300,000. Compute for her gross
earnings for the month.

Gross Earnings = Basic Monthly Salary + Commission + Override + Allowance

= P17,000 + (P100,000 x 0.05) + (P300,000 x 0.01) + P5,000
= P17,000 + P5,000 + P3,000 + P5,000
= P30,000
