How we worked it out
Updated as you change the numbers.
- Commission = sales × rate. Sales needed = target ÷ rate. Rate = commission ÷ sales.
Method and assumptions
Simple commission is a flat percentage of sales. Tiered plans pay different rates on different bands of sales; work out each band separately and add them.
