not to sound like I know anything.. ( as I don't) but I am confused...

but lets walk through this..

if a sales person has $1000 in sales he earns 9% of that.
so you take sales and * .09 = $90

if he earns a base salary of $200. then for that week he earned $200 + $90 = $290

I see that as sales * .09 = commision ($90)
commision + BaseSalary = $290

in yours
Weeksalary = StartingSalary+(Sales*StartingSalary*percentage)

you would have 200 + (200* .09) which = $290

so I don't see the diffrence.. maybe Im dumb.. (this is most likely the case)

but I do think yours is better progaming.. as its in one statment while mine was in two.

I really thank you for your assistance on this.. I am truly learning things.
