    Basic amount that Edgar Anderson earns per week = $300

    Sales of Mr. Anderson for one week = $2500

    Percentage of commission on sales above $1000 = 15%

    Then

    Amount of commission

    earned for the week = [2500 - 1000] * (15/100) dollars

    = 1500 * (15/100) dollars

    = 15 * 15 dollars

    = 225 dollars

    Then

    Gross pay of Edgar Anderson for the week = (300 + 225) dollars

    = 525 dollars

    So the gross pay of Edgar Anderson for the week is $525.
