Sales commission calculator
Set the quota and period, adjust the tiers, and see the payout update as you type. Works with flat tier rates and accelerator plans.
1 The plan
2 Achievement 85%
3 Commission tiers
Each tier starts at an achievement level and pays a rate. The highest tier you reach is the one that applies.
How the commission is calculated
Revenue closed = quota × achievement %. The calculator then applies your tiers in one of two ways:
- Tier rate on all revenue: commission = revenue closed × the rate of the highest tier reached.
- Each band at its own rate (accelerator): each slice of achievement between two tier starts is paid at that tier's rate, and the slices are added up.
Per month = commission ÷ the months in the period. Annualized = per month × 12.
| Method | Calculation | Commission |
|---|---|---|
| Tier rate on all revenue | 425,000 revenue × 10% (tier from 81%) | 42,500 |
| Each band at its own rate | 71% × 500,000 × 5% + 10% × 500,000 × 8% + 4% × 500,000 × 10% | 23,750 |
