Sales Commission Calculator
Calculate sales commission with a flat rate or tiered (graduated) rates, plus base salary, for any sales amount.
How to use
- 1Enter the sales amount and base pay.
- 2Enter a flat rate, or tiers as 'from-amount rate%' lines for graduated commission.
How it's calculated
Flat: sales × rate. Tiered (graduated): each slice of sales is paid at its tier's rate, like tax brackets.
Frequently asked questions
What's a typical commission rate?
It varies widely — 5–10% in many B2B sales roles, 2–3% per side for real estate agents, and higher for high-margin products.
What is a draw against commission?
An advance paid regularly and later subtracted from commissions earned. Enter it as base pay only if it's not recoverable.
Graduated vs. retroactive tiers?
Graduated pays each slice at its own rate. Retroactive pays all sales at the highest tier reached — use the flat rate for that.
