Calculate sales commission with an optional higher rate above a target.
Commission = sales × rate. With ₹5,00,000 in sales at 5% up to a ₹3,00,000 target and 8% above it, commission is ₹31,000.00.
Commission pays salespeople a percentage of what they sell. This calculator handles a flat rate and a tiered plan with a higher rate once you pass a target. Add a fixed base salary to see total earnings and your effective commission rate.
Check your plan: some commissions are paid on revenue, others on profit, and tiers may apply to the whole amount or only the excess. This calculator applies the higher rate only to sales above the target. See also the Margin Calculator and the Salary Calculator.
The calculator applies the standard financial formulas step by step.
| Item | Value |
|---|---|
| Total sales | ₹5,00,000.00 |
| Commission up to target | ₹15,000.00 |
| Commission above target | ₹16,000.00 |
| Total commission | ₹31,000.00 |
| Base salary | ₹20,000.00 |
| Total earnings | ₹51,000.00 |
| Sales | Commission |
|---|---|
| ₹2,00,000 sales, 5% flat | ₹10,000.00 |
| ₹3,00,000 sales, at target | ₹15,000.00 |
| ₹5,00,000 sales, tiered | ₹31,000.00 |
| ₹8,00,000 sales, tiered | ₹55,000.00 |
| ₹10,00,000 sales, tiered | ₹71,000.00 |
Multiply sales by the commission rate. With tiers, each slice of sales is multiplied by its own rate.
A plan that pays a higher rate on sales above a target, rewarding top performance.
It depends on your plan. Some pay on gross revenue, others on profit or margin. Check your agreement.
Total commission divided by total sales — useful when tiers make the rate vary.
This calculator applies it only to sales above the target (marginal). Some plans apply it to everything — check yours.
Subtract base salary from your goal and divide by the commission rate.
It uses the standard formula: commission = min(sales, target) × rate₁ + max(0, sales − target) × rate₂ The full method and a worked example are shown on this page.
