Computing Commission Formula
May 11, 2007
determining a formula to compute a sales commission.
Here is a sales scenario.
A $25 commission will be paid on sales between $50 to $150.
A $50 commission will be paid on sales between $151 to $300
A $75 commission will be paid on sales between $301 to $600
The sales person will enter the sale amount into column B. Column C should compute the total commission for multilple sales.
Example:
Column A Column B
Sales Commission
$50 $150 (which is the comm. for the combined sales)
$175
$360

I am trying to set up a spreadsheet that will have a calculator where variables can be modified in order to properly see staffing requirements using the Erlang C formula. I have all of the known variables, but I can't seem to figure out how to calculate the formula to get the numbers I'm expecting.
[URL] is the website I'm using currently, and I'm stuck at the actual Erlang C formula. I'm not very good at math, but here is how I am reading the formula in English (I'm using the given numbers on the site for the variables so I can check my work).
Erlang C = calls per second to the power of agents staffed divided by the factorial of agents staffed. The result is then divided by calls per second to the power of agents staffed divided by the factorial of agents staffed again, that result is added to 1 minus occupancy, that result is multiplied by the summation of 0 to 54 (54 being the result of 55 agents staffed minus 1), which is then multiplied by calls per second to the power of "k" (i haven't yet figured out what k should equal, i assumed zero from the summation) divided by the factorial "k".
The result I get is not even close to what the website shows as the answer for Erlang, which should be .239. Am I making faulty assumptions anywhere? It's entirely possible I'm not computing the formula properly, it's been about 12 years since I've taken a math class, but since I know all the values for the variables (except for "k"), I should be able to write out a simple Excel formula to compute this.

I am trying to write a formula for my commissions spreadsheet, which calculates commission clawbacks based on a sliding scale. From my understanding I need a code that will calculate additions or deductions based on a range of probabilities.
For example, if I have a percentage figure that is below 8%, I would like to add 15% to the total commission earned.
Here are the ranges below:
8% or under+15%
8-13%+ 10%
13-17%0
17-22%-10%
22% or more-15%
If I say my % is in K5 and the monetary value is in I5, what formula would I type into L5 to calculate the amendment?

I am trying to create a formula that calculates multiple commissions based on profit margin. So here is what I'm looking to. If the profit margin is between 50 and 70% than there is an additional 2% commission, if it's between 70.01-100% profit margin, than it's an additional 5% here is the equation I have=IF(OR(E2>50,E2<70),D2*2%,(IF(OR(E2>70.01,E2<100),D2*5%)))but it's still calculating at the 2% even thought it's an 86% margin.

if i could get a hand creating a commission calculation.. here is what i'm looking for and my brain hurts trying to make it... I put in excel an employees gross fees for a month,, their commission calculation is based on the following scheudule, for which i'd love an easy calculation, function, code etc. for..
$0 - $10,000 - 60% commission
$10,001 - $15,000 - 65% commission
$15,001+ - 70% commission..
i'm sure this seems simple, but i just can't get it because if for instance their first gross fee is $12,000, i don't know how to have it calculate the first $10,000 at 60% and the last $2,000 at 65%.
ps.. my excel sheet is set up as follows:
Rows a-g (stuff that is irrelivant)
row h, gross fees
row i, commission (in dollars)

I have a new sale structure to put in place the commission is paid in the following way:
below 1500 zero commission
between 1501 and 3000, commission at 16%
between 3001 and 8000, commission at 23%
above 8001, commission paid at 30%
Ergo if you generate 5000 you would be paid 700 ie nothing for the first 1500, 16% of the second 1500 and 23% of the remaining 2000. ( I hope my maths is correct! )
I have tried to manipulate other solutions using sumproduct but my knowledge is poor, the formula I have tried manipulating is =SUMPRODUCT( (A2 > {0,1500,3000,8000}) * (A2 - {0,1500,3000,8000}) * {0,0.16,0.23,0.3}). I prefer single line formula rather than lookups as staff will not be able to see commission rates easily.

I am trying to write a command to calculate the commission for my employees. There commission is based on the spread between sale price and cost. For example:
If Profit is between $1.00 and $2.00 - commission = 15%
If Profit is between $2.01 and $4.00 - commission = 20%
If Profit is between $4.01 and $6.00 - commission = 25%
If Profit is > than $6.00 then - commission = 30%
I am able to calculate the first level ex: =IF((C3-B3)<=2,"15%") It Displays the 15% in the formatted cell. (C3-B3 is the profit spread). How can I include the other 3 commission levels in the formula to display the correct commission % based on profit spread?

I have attached a spreadsheet which shows my desired result which often works.
Range C2:C13 is my desired result...
The problem /criteria is...
For every 140 meters sold the sales person receives £140 commission.
Meters (range B2:B13) can be carried to future months.
I am looking for a formula for range C2:C13 which calulates if commission should be paid in this month or not and if so, how much.

I need 2 different formulas to generate commission reporting information on the Summary tab of the attached sample Excel file. The first is highlighted in green. For these cells, I need a sum formula that reports the total commissions (column H of the "Data" worksheet) for items Ordered in the month listed in column B of the "Summary" worksheet, but not invoiced until the month listed in the column D, E & F headers of the same worksheet. Date of item order can be found in column A of the "Data" worksheet. Date of invoice can be found in column E of the "Data" worksheet.
Now, the problem that I think I am going into is the way Excel handles dates and times. All columns and data highlighted in orange on the data sheet need to be maintained without being changed, as eventually I am going to have a report setup by our operating program drop in there so that it automates the information without any additional labor by our employees who have varying levels of Excel proficiency. Unfortunately, the report from our operating program cannot simply list a date without a time. Feel free to create any column or field to the right of the orange columns in order to complete formulas based on those orange columns. I will just lock those cells when finished so that coworkers don't accidentally blow the shizel up.
The second sum formula that I need is highlighted in yellow on the "Summary" worksheet. Basically, I need a formula that sums all commissions in column H of the "Data" worksheet for those items that are cancelled AFTER invoicing. Column D of the "Data" worksheet lists the cancellation date. There are explanations for each of these on the worksheets for quick referral.

I am trying to come up with a formula that will allow the commission calculation to be done automatically once data is inputted in cell A2 and E2. I have tried IF statements, but can not figure out how to make it work. I am not able to figure out how to get cells F9 and F19 to work with the proper formula.

I have daily streamflow data for a large number of years. One column is the date and the second column is the streamflow value. I want to compute the maximum value and the 3-day maximum (largest average value for any consecutive 3-day period)for each water year (starts on October 1 and ends on Sept 30). Of course the number of days each year varies by one during leap years.

computing the number of business hours between 2 dates.
Given the following information:
- Business Hours: 8am -5pm (8:00-17:00)
- Business Days: Mon-Fri
- if entry queued falls on a weekend or beyond the business hours, it should count the first hour on the next business hour.
Example: scenario 1 = Starts Sunday, 10am and Ends Monday 9am; count of hours should be 1
scenario 2 = starts on Monday 6pm and ends on Tuesday 10am; count of hours should be 2

Im looking for an Excel macro that will allow me to input any date and time and produce x,y,z co-ordinate results for planetary positions relative to the centre of the universe. I already have a database with ephemeris data but find it difficult to use manually inputting date and time constantly. I need to perform so many calculations that automating this procedure is essential to me but i dont know how.

My spreadsheet opens. Cell A1 determines what today is, formatted as "weekday, day month year" (e.g., "Tuesday, 18 February 2014").
I have another cell in which I typically enter the date for the coming Friday. Instead of updating this field once each week, I'd like to calculate the date for the next coming Friday based off the value in cell A1 (to be concise, if "today" happens to be a Friday, then it would calculate the date of next Friday). (Continuing the example above, the coming Friday would be computed as 2/21/2014. If I open the spreadsheet on 2/21, it would calculate 2/28.)
What formula or step(s) to follow to render this value automatically?

Using Excel 2003, Column E has a varying and unpredictable number of rows, which only the final 252 rows are of significance. I need to compute the following formulas, here written in English as I can't determine the proper terminology to accomplish this task in Excel:
Final Row with a number in Column E/average (final 252 rows with numbers in column E)+
Final Row with a number in Column E/average (final 126 rows with numbers in column E)+
Final Row with a number in Column E/average (final 63 rows with numbers in column E)
Once again, what makes this not straightforward for me is the column may have wildly varying numbers of rows.

I have to compute monthly standard deviation (volatility) from daily data.
The problem consists on the fact that the days during a month are not constant and change over time.
I attach the excel file : Price_Time_Series.xlsx
In this xls file, you can find dates in column A, price in column B and returns in column C.
I want to compute standard deviation at the end of the month for stock returns (column C), by considering all available days.
As you can note from the file, the days change over time and they are note constant. How can I compute standard deviation of them?

I'm using excel 2007 for analyzing my students grades. I ran two exams and look for a way to compute a final grade score, which should be equal to the grade of the first exam for those students who took just the first exam and should be equal to the second score for those students who took the second exam. (Clarification: for those students who took both terms, their final grade should be equal to their score in the second term).

Sheet3.Select
Dim cellsNum As Integer
Dim commission As Single, rating As String
Dim sales As Single
Range("b2").Select
cellsNum = ActiveCell. CurrentRegion.Row.Count
For i = 1 To cellsNum
If ActiveCell.Value > 150000 Then
commission = ActiveCell.Value * 0.012
rating = "superior"
Else sales > 100000 And sales <150000 Then
commission = ActiveCell.Value * 0.08
rating = "satisfactory"
Else
I am trying to calculate the commission for the sales for sales>150000 a commision charge of 0.012 and rating of superior. for 150000> sales >100000 a commision charge of 0.08 and rating of satisfactory. for other sales a commision charge of 0.04 and rating of unsuperior.
i am finding a few problems with the code 1st a problem with 'cellsNum = ActiveCell.CurrentRegion.Row.Count' it says complie error: invalid qualifier 2nd a problem with 'Else sales > 100000 and sales <150000 then'

Attached is sample data. Target payout is the amount of the base salary a salesman can earn if all goals are reached. Commissions are payed quarterly. Listed on the left are 7 goals, each with a weight of importance toward the target payout amount. The percentage achieved can only be 100% or 0%, nowhere in the middle, although they are allowed to make up a goal later if they do not make it at first. This is where I get stumped. For example, if they don't make a goal in quarter one but make the goal in quarter two plus what they missed in one, they get two quarters worth of commission in quarter 2 for that goal. I am having trouble figuring out the easiest way to go about this.

I want to pay different commission rates for different levels of sales...
IE nothing if sales are under 250,000 per year.
5% between 250,000 and 500,000,
8 % between 500,000 and 750,000
10% between 750,000 and 1,000,000
12.5 % between 1,000,000 and 1,250,000
and 15 % over 1,250,000
The issue that im having trouble with is that if the sales guy brings in 1,500,000 in yeary sales he would be paid some at 0%, some at 5% some at 8% some at 10% , so at 12.5 and some at 15%
How do i calculate that? I have included a excel spreadsheet.

I'm having trouble creating a commission calculation.
The commission schedule is paid on a tiered rate (below), and occasionally there will be recoveries due to client non-payment, which comes out of commission. There is also a budget variance every month. I'd like to have the Monthly Budget in cell A1, the Revenue in cell A2, Recoveries in cell A3 and the Commission (formula) in cell A4. I only need the formula for cell A4, everything else will be entered manually.
Revenue Schedule
$0-$14,000 = 0%
$14,001 - $18,000 = 7.5%
$18,001 - $BUDGET = 10%
$102% BUDGET - Forever = 15%
Note that once you hit 18K, the 14-18K does not jump up to 10%, it stays at the 7.5%.

The following is assumed.
I have a base salary of $5k/monthMy PROFIT on hardware sales must equal or exceed my monthly salary in order for me to earn a commission on hardware sales. If it does, my commission is then Profit beyond monthly salary X 25%I also earn commission on software sales. Total Commission is the sum of Software commission plus commission on hardware sales.
Example: HW Profit is $6k. Software commission is $3k.
$6k - $5k = $1k.
$1k * 25% = $250.
$250 + $3k = $3250
However, there are times (unfortunately) when my total hardware profit does not equal or exceed my monthly salary. When that happens, I am now in a negative status regarding hardware commission. The negative status is simply salary minus hardware profit.
Total commission is then that negative number plus software commission.
Example: HW Profit is $3k. Software commission is $3k.
$5k - $3k = $-2k.
-$2k + $3k = $1k
I need a formula in one cell to account for both possibilities.

I have been thinking about this for a few days and have no idea where to start.
The commission scheme pays like this:
upto $40,000 in sales pays 30%
$40,001 to $80,000 pays 40%
$80,001 + pays 50%
Also, the sales person will only earn commission once they have invoiced 1/3 of their basic salary. Example
$60,000 must invoice $20,000 per month, therefore commission is actually 30% of the remaining $20,000.
I want to create a spreadsheet that allows me to enter the basic salary for individual sales persons and their individual sales figures to calculate their gross commission and also their gross basic salary if I can.

I receive a certain percentage of my broker's commission based on what type of house sale occurs. When one of my listings sell I receive the commission in A2:A7. When I sell a house to Company A I receive the commisions from B2:B7, company B C2:C7, and company C D2:D7.
My own personal commission percentages increase based on the income schedule E2:F7. For example, once I have earned $8137, my percentages for sales all jump to Row 3.
I have set up a chart below the commission schedule for each individual sale to calculate the commission for each type of sale. Each "x" represent a sale for each category (LISTING, COMP A, COMP B, COMP C). The broker's commission is always 3.5% of the total sales price. My commission will be a certain percentage of the broker's commission based on the scale above.

I'm trying to create a worksheet to calculate ourcommsiion structure, but can't figure out a way to attack it. We have manyvariables (5) in our commission structure based on each order.
Here's how I set it up so far:
(In Cloumns)
A= Order Amount
B= "Y" is A-15%; "N"=A
C= "Y" is B*20%; "N" is B*10%
D= "Y" is B+2%; "N" is B
E= "Y" is B+2%; "N" is B
F="Y" is B+1%; "N" is B
G= SUM(A:F)
For example, if the order is $1000, and I answer y,y,y,y,y=$212.5
How do I create the formulas so I can just put in the order amount and the
appropriate letter to get the correct commission structure?
