Many business workers earn more than the national mean salary, but earnings vary widely depending on the position, the industry, the region, and the level of experience.
For example, bookkeepers earned $42,410 per year, on average, while computer and information system managers made $151,150.
There are also positions, especially those in sales, who are remunerated on a commission basis.
For these workers, their earnings fluctuate depending on the number of products or services sold.
