Bi Weekly Salary = Annual Salary divided by 26 (number of pay periods in a year)...

in John's case it = $923.08

If John earns a 5% bonus on 40,000 sales goal and he hits at least 40,000,

his bonus is 2,000...5% of 40,000.

John did a GREAT job though and far exceeded his goal!! So, John gets a 10% bonus on sales above 50,000.

If sales were 63432.96, John's 10% bonus would be determined from the 13,432.96 in sales that were over the 50,000 mark.

10% of that is 1343.30 (rounded up).

So, add John's 2 bonuses together and you get 3343.30.

Since his bonus is split between his two paychecks you have to divide by 2.

I came up with 1671.65.

So, John's paycheck would actually be 2594.73 (presumably before taxes and other deductions).

I hope this helps AND I hope I'm right. ; )

A. 24,000/26 would give biweekly salary (26 pay periods in a year)

= 923.08

B. Bonuses:

(63,432.96-50,000) x 10%

(63,432.96-50,000-40,000) x 5% (we already calculated the bonus above $50k so we don't need to double calculate the bonus)

$1643.30 + $500.00 = $2143.30 divided by 2 = $1071.65

Total is $1994.73
