What Is a Commission Calculator?

A commission calculator is an online tool that determines how much money a salesperson, agent, broker, or employee earns from completed sales. Commission is commonly calculated as a percentage of the total sales amount.

Businesses use commission structures to reward employees for reaching sales targets. The exact calculation can depend on gross sales, net sales, commission percentage, base salary, refunds, returns, and other deductions.

Standard Commission Formula

Commission = Sales Amount × Commission Rate ÷ 100

For example, suppose a salesperson completes $15,000 in sales and receives a 7% commission. The calculation would be:

$15,000 × 7 ÷ 100 = $1,050 Commission

Commission with a Base Salary

Some employees receive a fixed salary in addition to commission. Their total earnings can be calculated by adding the base salary to the earned commission.

Total Earnings = Base Salary + Commission

Commission After Deductions

Refunds, product returns, processing charges, or canceled orders may reduce the commissionable sales amount. Our calculator lets you enter deductions before calculating commission.

Net Sales = Total Sales − Deductions

Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about commission calculations.

Multiply the commissionable sales amount by the commission percentage and divide the result by 100. For example, 5% of $10,000 is $500.

A commission rate is the percentage of a sale paid to the person responsible for generating or completing that sale.

Calculate the commission first and then add it to the fixed base salary. Total earnings equal base salary plus commission.

This depends on the employment or sales agreement. Some businesses calculate commission on gross sales, while others subtract refunds, returns, discounts, or taxes first.

Divide the target commission by the commission rate expressed as a decimal. For example, earning $1,000 at a 10% rate requires $10,000 in sales.
