Earl Miller, a lawyer, charges Lee’s Plumbing, his client, 28% of what he can collect for Lee from customers whose accounts are past due. The attorney also charges, in addition to the 28%, a flat fee of $50 per customer. This month, Earl collected $6,400 from three of Lee’s past-due customers. What is the total fee due to Earl? Total fee due to Earl

Answer :

Answer: $1,942.

Step-by-step explanation:

given data.

no of customers = 3.

flat fee/ customer = $50.

Earls commission = 28%.

amount collected by Earl = $6,400

Total fee due to Earl

= 28/100 * $6,400

= 0.28 * $6,400

= $1,792.

flat fee charged by Earl

= $50 * no of customers

= $50 * 3

= $150

So total fee due to Earl

= $1,792 + $150

= $1,942.
