A Massachusetts broker charges a 5.5% commission. After splitting 50/50 with the cooperating broker, the listing broker retains 2.75%. The listing broker pays their agent 60% of the listing side. On a $580,000 sale, how much does the listing agent receive?
A$9,570✓ Correct
B$15,950
C$8,700
D$12,000
Explanation
Total commission = $580,000 × 5.5% = $31,900. Listing broker's side = $31,900 × 50% = $15,950. Listing agent's share = $15,950 × 60% = $9,570.
