commission = 8
elif( salesAmount >= 5000.01 and salesAmount <= 10000 ):
commission = 10
elif( salesAmount >= 10000.01 ):
commission = 12
# returning the commission amount

amount = 10000
print "Sales Amount ",
print "Commission "
while ( amount <= 100000 ):
print amount ,
print " " ,
print computeCommission(amount)
amount = amount + 5000
