On the recordJune 10, 1998
In the list of extensions, are there other situations which involve part of the income being derived from commissions? Part of this 22,000 is commissions. It is only 16,000 that is really salary, and part is commission. Is there any other situation where an exemption is given to some position which makes up commissions, is made up partially with commissions?
