Commission Calculator

Instantly calculate how much commission you've earned.

What this calculator does

Enter revenue amount and commission rate.

When to use this calculator

This calculator earns its keep at decision points: before accepting a loan, comparing investment platforms, or negotiating salary. The difference between the headline figure and the true cost or return is only visible with accurate arithmetic.

Common mistakes

A frequent error is using annual rates where monthly rates are required (or vice versa). Simply dividing an annual rate by 12 is only an approximation — the correct conversion for compound calculations uses the (1 + r)^(1/12) − 1 formula.

Real-world scenarios

An employee receives a counter-offer from another employer: a £4,000 salary increase but no pension contribution versus the current role's lower salary with 8% employer pension. Running both through the finance calculator shows the true net financial value of each offer.

Frequently asked questions

What is a typical commission rate?

3-10% is common, depending on the industry.
