    Smile Commission Formula w/Accelerators based on Quota Range & Term Length? attatched worksheet

    I'm in need of a formula for the following:

    Up to 100% of annual quota - they get 8.5% (BUT - any deal less than twelve months must also be calculated based on term length as well)

    greater than 100 of less than 133% of quota - 12% commission rate - again, anything less than 12 months on a deal should calculate on the appropriate rate PLUS the term length

    greater than 133% of quota - 15% (again, anything less than 12 months on a deal should calculate on the appropriate rate PLUS the term length)

    Seems a bit too complicated for this Excel brain - any help out there? Much appreciated. Thank you!

    Re: Commission Formula w/Accelerators based on Quota Range & Term Length? attatched worksh

    This seems closely related to this thread from November of 2015: http://www.excelforum.com/excel-form...ml#post4231079 Based on that I have a few questions. 1) Should the formula go in H7? If so this formula may work:

    2) Should the amount in E7 reflect the sales of both XYZ and HU or just one of them? 3) Should the amount in M16 reflect that the sale has a term of 9 months, as in:

    Here is what I have done so far, but need to get some clarification before going further:

    Re: Commission Formula w/Accelerators based on Quota Range & Term Length? attatched worksh

    HI! How happy I am to hear this reply

    1) Formula can go in E7 - also need to make sure formula works still in M16 based on last thread - think it should still be ok but getting confused :-0

    2) The amount in E7 should reflect sales of both

    3) Amount in M16 should reflect that the sale has a term of 9 months

    Thank you!!!!

    Re: Commission Formula w/Accelerators based on Quota Range & Term Length? attatched worksh

    Lets go through the setup of the file that I attached to post#2 and see if it matches your expectations.
    1) M16 is taking the amount in F16 and multiplying by 9/12 as the contract was only for 9 months.
    2) M21 takes the sum of M16:M20.
    3) B13 takes the amount from M21.
    4) E7 looks up the amount listed in M21.
    5) H7 multiplies the amount in E7 times 12% since $225,000 is 112.5% of the sales quota.
    Does everything seem to be doing as it should?

    Re: Commission Formula w/Accelerators based on Quota Range & Term Length? attatched worksh

    Hi again - I just realized something - the quota is actually like this..

    Everything earned UP TO or EQUAL to 100% of quota (200K) is at 8.5% rate - anything over that initial quota then gets the following:

    Over 100% up to or equal to 133% is 12% rate
    Over 133% gets 15%

    So it's not calculating correct yet - the first 200K (the 100% of quota) would be at 8.5% rate - and then the two other rates come into play

    Here is the new formula for H7:

    Here is the file with the formula applied and the line items moved to column N (I also changed M16:M17 to be cumulative as the header implies).

    Here is a formula that can be pasted into O16 and down to give you the commission for each sale/opportunity:

    Re: Commission Formula w/Accelerators based on Quota Range & Term Length? attatched worksh

    Hello - I realized that the commission structure is a bit trickier than when looked at further.

    Up to equal to 100% of annual quota - they get 8.5% and then the next rate kicks in (greater than 100% or less than 133% of quota @12% rate).

    However, should part of the deal that pushes them into the next tier still fall within the first 8.5% rate, then we need to consider that as well into the formula (and for the next tier --greater than 133%) as well.

    Example -
    Deal #1: 100K - would be at 8.5% rate
    Deal #2: 150K - 100K of this deal would be calculated into commission at 8.5% rate and 50K of it at 12%

    Thank you.

    Hello...I think the formula is close but I realized that it's not calculating that part of the deal (second line) ..the portion that should be in the base rate and the portion in 12%. Should the Net New ACV in red column somehow be incorporated into this formula as well?

    Re: Commission Formula w/Accelerators based on Quota Range & Term Length? attatched worksh

    Workbook3.xlsx

    Wondering if someone can help - We are using a different quota (annual quota) but that should not be much different. The formula was changed a bit and seems close - if anyone has time can you see what i'm missing?

    Up to equal to 100% of annual quota - they get 8.5% and then the next rate kicks in (greater than 100% or less than 133% of quota @12% rate).

    However, should part of the deal that pushes them into the next tier still fall within the first 8.5% rate, then we need to consider that as well into the formula (and for the next tier --greater than 133%) as well.

    Example -
    Deal #1: if up to 100% or equal to - would be at 8.5% rate
    Deal #2: Total Net New ACV pushes them over annual quota - BUT, if part of this deal still falls within the "up to or equal to annual quota" that amount would be calculated into commission at 8.5% rate and the remainder at the next tier

    Thank you.

    Re: Commission Formula w/Accelerators based on Quota Range & Term Length? attatched worksh

    As a general formula

    Try

    =MIN(D1,A1)*0.085+IF(D1>A1,MIN(D1-A1,D1-0.33*A1)*0.12+MAX(0,D1-1.33*A1)*0.15,0)

    D1=Annual earnings

    A1=Annual Quota

    Re: Commission Formula w/Accelerators based on Quota Range & Term Length? attatched worksh

    This solution uses three helper columns so as to hopefully make it easier to understand and modify in the future. The first helper column calculates the amount of the sale that is less than or equal to 100% of the annual quota using the formula:

    The second helper column calculates the amount of the sale that is between 100% and 133% of the annual quota using the formula:

    The third helper column calculates the amount of the sale that is over 133% of the annual quota using the formula:

    Column N then calculates the commission on the sales from the three helper columns using the formula:
