How to Calculate Commission

Commission is sales times the commission rate. Tiered plans pay a higher rate on sales above a quota. A draw is an advance on commission: it guarantees pay in slow periods and is subtracted from commission earned.

Commission = sales × rate   Tiered: quota × rate 1 + (sales − quota) × rate 2
Total pay = base + the larger of commission and draw

Worked Example

Tips

Plans differ on whether commission is paid on gross sales, net of returns, or gross profit; enter the amount your plan uses. A recoverable draw carries forward any shortfall to future periods.
