Apply the higher rate only to the excess
Progressive tiers and retroactive plans produce different payouts. This calculator names its bracket rule and shows the allocation, so a higher rate never silently replaces the first tier.

02
Keep the source values in view
Base pay is reported separately and then added to commission. Effective commission rate excludes base pay. Zero eligible sales produce zero commission and an unavailable effective rate.
03
Use the output in your workflow
Carry the calculated payout into the contribution margin calculator as a variable selling cost when the scope matches. Use the sales growth calculator to compare eligible sales periods separately from the commission rule.
04
Read the declared limits
This does not infer eligibility, returns, clawbacks, splits, currency conversion or payroll taxes. Use your actual written compensation plan; a retroactive tier is a different rule.
