Work out commission on real estate sales, on revenue or on gross profit, and what it leaves the business.

About this calculator
Revenue or gross profit?
Gross profit, in almost every case. Commission on revenue gives a salesperson every reason to drop the price to close, because their pay barely moves and yours collapses.
What if the job loses money?
Then a profit-based scheme pays nothing on it, which is the point. Revenue-based schemes pay out on losses, which is how a busy quarter ends badly.
The formula
commission = (revenue or gross profit) x rate
