How to use it

Enter the quota and the sales achieved.

How it is calculated

Base-rate commission = sales up to the accelerator threshold × base rate
Accelerator commission = sales above the threshold × accelerator rate
Fixed bonus is paid only when sales reach the quota
Effective rate = commission ÷ total sales
Total earnings = commission + fixed bonus + base pay
