Explain the term commission?

  • A simple definition of commission accounting is an income or expense incurred by the business throughout the course of a transaction.
  • Usually, commission-based real estate companies or other sales organizations employ this style of bookkeeping.

The data stated in question-

  • For each phone he sells, Jace receives a $11 commission, and for each accessory, he receives a $3 commission.
  • Jace sold twice quite so many components as phones on any given day, generating a commission of $102 from both types of transactions.

Let 'P' be the number of the phones sold.

Then, the accessory sold be '2P'.

The equation will form for the total cost will be;

11P  +  3(2P) = 102

11P  +  6P = 102

17P = 102

P = 102 / 17 =

P = 6  (number of sold phones)

Accessories sold = 2P = 2 x 6 = 12

Thus, the sales of phones and accessories should be 6 and 12 each, correspondingly.
