To find the sales amount above which Company A's offer is better, we set up an equation where the total earnings from both companies are equal and solve for the sales amount. Let $x$ be the sales amount. For Company A: $360 + 0.12x$, and for Company B: $720 + 0.06x$. Setting them equal: $360 + 0.12x = 720 + 0.06x$. Solving for $x$ gives $x = 6000$. Therefore, for sales above \$6000, Company A's offer is better.
