So I have a convoluted calculation that I need assistance with.

I am trying to calculate commission for hair stylists and additional commission for products that they sell.

I have no problem with the calculation that I am using for calculating their commission. Here is an example of what I am using.
=SUMPRODUCT((C13>{0,600,1000,1500,2000,2500,3000})*(C13-{0,600,1000,1500,2000,2500,3000})*{0.38,0.06,0.03,0.03,0.05,0.03,0.02})

This will give them a tiered commission. Again, this works just fine.

Now... I am trying to create a second calculation that pays them a tiered commission based on products that they sell. This would be a tiered commission again, but only if they sell a certain percentage of the services they do.

The employees earn a tiered commission once they sell at least 10% of their total services.
They get 10% of all product sales that are 10-14.9% of their services.
They get 15% of all product sales that are 15-19.9% of their services.
They get 20% of all product sales that are 20% or higher of their services.

Here is the example:
My stylist does $1000 a week in services and $90 in product sales. They would not get any commission for product sales as they are less than 10%.
My stylist does $1000 a week in services and $175 in product sales. They would get 10% of the first $149 which would be $14.90. They would get 15 percent of the $26 which would be $3.90. So their total commission would be $18.80.
My stylist does $1000 a week in services and $275 in product sales. They would get 10% of the first $149 which would be $14.90. They would get 15 percent of the $50 which would be $7.50. They would get 20% of $76 which would be $15.20. So their total commission would be $37.60.

That being said, how can I do this? I put the total of services in one cell and the total of product sales in another cell. I need to use the above example and make a tiered commission.

Thanks in advance,
Lyle

How can you turn a range sideways?
Copy the range. Select a blank cell. Right-click, Paste Special, then choose Transpose.

Is there a way to jam this all into one cell? I am trying to keep the spreadsheet from having clutter. I also do not want other people screwing it up by altering fields they shouldn't.

I also need to accomplish this for 20 people and each person has their totals on a separate page in the Excel workbook. Thus the reason I am trying to keep it all in one cell if at all possible.

Re: Need help with Sum Product calculation

Hi Dave,
Something is not working when this is scaled to higher numbers.

If I double the above scenario:
Here is the example:
My stylist does $2000 a week in services and $180 in product sales. They would not get any commission for product sales as they are less than 10%.
My stylist does $2000 a week in services and $350 in product sales. They would get 10% of the first $298 which would be $29.80. They would get 15 percent of the $52 which would be $7.80. So their total commission would be $37.60.
My stylist does $2000 a week in services and $550 in product sales. They would get 10% of the first $298 which would be $29.80. They would get 15 percent of the $100 which would be $15.00. They would get 20% of $152 which would be $30.40. So their total commission would be $75.20.

Your calculations is giving me $0, $52.60 and $92.60 respectively.

Something is off. Any ideas?

Re: Need help with Sum Product calculation

D3 is one cell.

If you mean add your two commission calculations, add the two formulas together.
=SUMPRODUCT(--(A2>{0,600,1000,1500,2000,2500,3000}),A2-{0,600,1000,1500,2000,2500,3000},{0.38,0.06,0.03,0.03,0.05,0.03,0.02})+(B2/A2>0.1)*SUMPRODUCT(--(B2>{0;149;199}),B2-{0;149;199},{0.1;0.05;0.05})

You could also put the brackets and rate diff information into named ranges.

Your later commentary indicates that your brackets are a factor of the revenue.
You can build the brackets by formula.
The brackets would be different for each different amount of revenue.

A2 and B2 are always going to be different.

The percentage of commission is always static based on the tiers I described.

Given the second scenario I gave, the first bracket would not work.

How did you determine the brackets?

Re: Need help with Sum Product calculation

I took the brackets that you provided me.

The constant here is the stylist would get 10% commission on all products sales that are equal to 10% of their services and up to 14.9% of their services.
The stylist would get 15% commission on the product sales of 15%-19.9%, and 20% for those sales above 20%.

You may want to check your definition of the brackets.
How do you want to assemble this for a simple solution?
