Study Notes
Commission
- A fee businesses pay salespersons (agents) in exchange for services
- Commission can be based on a flat arrangement or a percentage of the revenue generated by a salesperson.
Types of Commission
- Straight Commission: A salesperson's income is solely based on a percentage of their sales.
- Salary Plus Commission: A salesperson receives a fixed salary plus a percentage of sales.
- Graduated Commission: Commission rates increase as sales volume increases, with different percentage rates for different sales tiers.
- Quota Commission: Salespeople earn commission only on sales exceeding a predetermined quota.
Computing Commissions on Cash Basis
- Commissions are paid immediately after a customer makes a full payment for the product or service.
- Straight commission calculations are used here, where the percentage of the sale is the commission.
Commission on Installment Basis
- Commissions are paid in stages, aligned with customer payments.
- Commission rates may change based on installment number.
Example Applications
- Samantha's Commission:
- Commission up to ₱100,000: ₱100,000 x 4% = ₱4,000
- Commission above ₱100,000: (₱150,000 - ₱100,000) x 7% = ₱3,500
- Total Salary: ₱25,000 (base) + ₱4,000 + ₱3,500 = ₱32,500
- James's Commission:
- Commission on sales up to ₱5,000,000: 2.5%
