I need to create a if then statement for commissions calculations and it is on a cumulative total of sales. I think the formula is to long and do not know how to shorten it and make it work.



IF(B22500001,(C21*0.1),IF(B22250001,IF(C2250000 1,(((C22-500000)*0.1)+((500000-B22)*0.08)),IF(C22250001,(C21*0.08),IF(B22<250001 ,IF(C22500001,(((C22-500000)*0.1)+20000+(250000-B22)*0.05)),IF(C22250001,(((C22-250000)*0.08)+(250000-B22)*0.05),(C21*0.05)))))))

This task is usually best accomplished using a table and VLOOKUP. Perhaps if you explained the commission structure, someone could help you. It's a bit difficult for me to figure out from your formula.
