Normal Commission = 2% of sales = 140000*2% = 2800

Special Commission = 20% (Gross Sales – Cost of Goods Sold – All Commission)

Let us assume special commission to be x

So, x = 20% [140000-(3/5*200000)-2800-x]

or, x = 0.2 (140000-120000-2800-x)

or, x = 28000-24000-560-0.2x

or, 1.2x = 3440

or, x = 3440/1.2 = 2867

Total Commission = 2800+2867 = 5667

Commission on sale=1,40,000X2%. . =Rs.2800. extra commission=(1,40,000-1,20,000-2800)X20/120 comes Rs.2866.67 .. ... so,total commission comes Rs.(2800+2867)=5667.
