I am new here so please excuse any mistakes in this posting
I wonder if anyone out there can help me with an Excel problem i am
having....
i want Excel to calculate a commission based on the following
information the these columns:
gross sales
less expenses
net profit
% of profit
commission
the first part is easy and i can handle that...its the calculation of
the commission that is giving me problems. The calculation of
commissions is as follows:
if the percentage of profit is 20% then that is the commission amount
eg: 20% of the net profit
if the percentage of profit is less than 20% then the commission amount
is whatever that figure is: eg 19.8% times the net profit
if the percentage of profit is more than 20% then the commission amount
is 20% of the net profit. eg: percentage of profit is 21.3% then the
commission is 20% of the net profit...
if there is a loss (net profit greater than the sales) then the
commission should reflect a negative percentage and therefore be
deducted from any commissions due
i think that covers all the possibilities
Thanks in advance for any help you can give with this
