What this tool does
Most commission schemes only pay above a threshold, so the headline percentage overstates what is actually earned. The last result is the effective rate across the whole turnover, which is the number worth comparing between offers.
Formula
commission = sales × rate ÷ 100

Limitations
- The tool works with whatever currency you use for the inputs; it does not convert between currencies.
- Tax rates and rounding rules differ between countries and sometimes between regions. Use the rate that applies to your invoice.
- The result is an estimate based only on the values you type. Real situations often include factors this calculator does not know about.
