💼 Commission Tips
- • Commission is usually calculated on the sale amount before tax
- • Some commissions are tiered (higher % for higher sales)
- • Track sales carefully to verify commission calculations
- • Base salary + commission provides income stability
- • Commission-only jobs have higher earning potential but more risk
Formula
Commission = Sale Amount × (Rate % / 100)
Total Earnings = Base Salary + Commission
How it works
Commission = Sale Amount × (Rate % / 100) Total Earnings = Base Salary + Commission Examples: $5,000 sale at 10% commission: Commission = $5,000 × (10 / 100) = $500 $10,000 sale at 15% commission + $2,000 base: Commission = $10,000 × (15 / 100) = $1,500 Total = $2,000 + $1,500 = $3,500
