    Re: Help with Commission calculations

    jut to clarify

    I would use a nested IF along the lines of
    =IF(AND(E2="A",F2 < 1500),F2*35, IF(AND(E2="A",F2 > = 1500), ((1500*0.35)+((F2-1500)*0.5)), .....
    BUT

    What value is for 1500 you say less than for 35% so 1500 would apply 50% for type A

    And so is this the % applicable
    ((1499*0.35)+((F2-1499)*0.5)),

    Also the 150 - does that mean
    that the 1500 is in fact 1650 ???
    or how does the 150 apply
    Wayne

    Re: Help with Commission calculations

    Assuming that the -150 is applied whereever profit appears, maybe

    Re: Help with Commission calculations

    Thanks for replying.
    to clarify, the profit in F2 is 3,400.00 so i would first take off 150.00 so total is now 3,250.00
    the type is A so he would need to get on the first 1,500.00 35% and for the remaining 1,750.00 50%
    hope this helps
    thanks again

    Re: Help with Commission calculations

    This works partially.
    you did not subtract first the 150.00.
    and what if its a "B"
    can you please give me the full formula?
    Thanks

    Re: Help with Commission calculations

    this is a nested IF - maybe a better way to do this
    BUT does this actually work ?

    =IF(AND(E2="A",(F2-150<=1500)),(F2-150)*0.35,IF(AND(E2="A",(F2-150>1500)), (F2-150-1500)*0.5,IF(AND(E2="B",(F2-150<=1500)),(F2-150)*0.25,IF(AND(E2="B",(F2-150>1500)), (F2-150-1500)*0.4,"criteria not met"))))

    on the first 150 does not make commission nor is it part of the 1500 threshold going by your reply
    threshold is 1650 - then if 1650 commision is calculated on 1500

    Re: Help with Commission calculations

    it gives me back only the commission for the over 1650.00, for some reason for the first 1650-150=1500 * 35% or 25% nothing is calculated.

    Re: Help with Commission calculations

    for line 1 and 4 on your attached sheet, you give back only commission for above the 1500.00, you do not calculate the 25% for the first 1650.00-150.00=1500.00 (commission for this part should be 525.00 and for the above numbers an additional 875.00 total 1,400.00)

    Re: Help with Commission calculations

    Row 4 is for
    Type A
    profit 200
    Commision 17.5
    200-150 = 150
    150*35 % = 17.5
    seems to work

    Row 3
    Type B
    profit 860
    Commision 177.5
    860 - 150 = 710
    710 * 25% = 177.5
    also seems to work

    Re: Help with Commission calculations

    you are missing the difference from 0 - 1500 between A and B. A is 35% B is 25%

    Re: Help with Commission calculations

    in other words if the Type is "B" you are still giving 35% for the first 1500.00, it should be only 25% for the first 1500.00 if the type is B
    thanks
