    A) $355,000

    Explanation:

    To determine how much money Joe's Jalopies earned with these sales we can use the following equation:

    money earned = sales price of warehouse + sales price of tractor + mortgage assumed by buyer - sales commissions

    money earned = $300,000 + $25,000 + $50,000 - $20,000 = $355,000
