1. 100% Commission
In a straight commission plan, the only income sales reps earn comes directly from
their sales.
The biggest positive for sales reps is that it provides the highest earning potential.
Most companies don’t put a commission cap on commission plans, so the sky’s the
The model still rewards performance, and since you can control the fixed salary or
number of hours the sales rep works, you can predict your expenses and know how
much reps need to sell to be profitable.
Ultimately, the customers benefit, too. The sales process retains its integrity since
there isn’t as much at stake if the sales rep doesn’t close the deal. This alone
removes much of the stress from the process since reps aren’t cutting corners or
going off-book just to make a sale.
3. Revenue Commission
Whether you choose a commission-only structure or a base salary plus commission,
you’ll also need to decide how to set your commission rates.
One popular model is the revenue commission model, which is popular for field sales
organizations or companies that sell products with set price points.
For example, if the sales rep sells a ₱1,000 service, they get 10% in commission.
Many sales organizations use this method when they want to grow their market
share or enter new territories. They’re not as focused on profit as they are on larger
business goals.
It’s simple to understand and execute for reps and company leaders alike, and
paying reps based on the revenue they bring in ensures that top sales performers
are also the highest paid.
5. Commission Draw
The commission draw model contains elements of the commission-only and the
base pay plus commission structures.
Simply put, each sales rep receives some amount of guaranteed pay each month,
regardless of how much they sell. If they earn less in commissions than the draw
amount, they’ll keep their commission in addition to the difference between the draw
amount and the commission.
For example, if a sales rep is eligible for a ₱2,000 draw and they earn ₱1,700 in
commission, they keep the full amount of the commission plus ₱300 (draw amount
minus commission).
Most notably, these are advanced payments and must be paid back.
This system is typically used for new hires who need time to ramp up production.
Studies show the average sales rep takes about 9.1 months to gain full productivity,
so having a draw allowance can provide some assurance during this time.
On the downside, the commission draw model can be complex to execute, and it’s
complicated for sales reps to track and predict their earnings. Worse, if they have
several bad sales cycles in a row, they could end up in significant debt to the
company.
6. Tiered Commission
Companies that want an easy way to motivate reps and reward top performers may
prefer a tiered commission structure. After closing a certain number of deals or
reaching certain revenue benchmarks, the salesperson’s commission rate increases.
For example, sales reps may earn a 5% commission on all sales up to ₱20,000 in
revenue. Once they pass this mark, they will earn an 8% commission on all other
sales during that same period.
For example, the commission plan of Mr. Smith is to earn 4% of all sales, less any
returned merchandise. If he reaches ₱60,000 in sales by the end of the quarter, the
commission retroactively changes to 5%. In the first quarter, he has ₱61,500 of
sales, less ₱500 of returned merchandise. Thus, the calculation of his commission
for the entire quarter is:
₱61,000 Net sales x 5% Commission rate = ₱3,050
If commissions are not to be paid by the end of the reporting period, then the amount
of commission expense is included in a reversing journal entry, along with the
estimated amount of payroll taxes. This approach is only used under the accrual
basis of accounting, and ensures that the expense is recorded in the same period as
the sales transaction that triggered the commission.

Let's assume that Janelle makes ₱7 for every hour that she works and 5%
commission on all sales that she makes at the shoe store. Last week, Janelle
worked 25 hours and sold ₱750 worth of shoes. How much money did Janelle make
last week?
Janelle's pay includes her salary and a commission on total sales. Let's
calculate each one of these pieces separately.
Janelle's salary would be:
Salary = number of hours worked x salary per hour
Salary = 25 x 7
From the base formula, A = P(1 + rt) derived from A = P + I and since I = Prt then A
= P + I becomes A = P + Prt which can be rewritten as A = P(1 + rt)
Note that rate r and time t should be in the same time units such as months or years.
Time conversions that are based on day count of 365 days/year have 30.4167
days/month and 91.2501 days/quarter. 360 days/year have 30 days/month and 90
days/quarter.

Compensation strategy
Do not underestimate the value of the advantages or perquisites that your company
has to offer that may not be readily available in larger companies—opportunities for
interesting work, lack of hierarchy, flexible environment, and so on.
Some people are motivated by the desire to be on the leading edge of scientific or
technological advances. They may take less pay to work for a startup if they believe
in its future and the work it has to offer.
There are three key types of incentives: bonuses, profit sharing and stock
options.
1. Bonuses
o An individual receives the option to buy company shares for a set price
during a specified time frame.
o Option can be exercised by the individual at any time during the
agreed-upon term and subject to any vesting schedule.
o Stock options are often part of management’s executive compensation
but may be offered to key employees in lieu of a higher salary—
especially where the business is not yet profitable and/or cash flow is
constrained.
o If the business does well and the company’s stock rises, the holders of
the options share in the financial benefits.
o In general, if the company permits a long period from the date of issue
to the last date for exercising the option, it will encourage the employee
to stay with the company and be fully committed to its success.
Commissions
Net income is your company’s total profits after deducting all business expenses.
Some people refer to net income as net earnings, net profit, or the company’s bottom
line. It’s the amount of money you have left over to pay shareholders, invest in new
projects or equipment, pay off debts, or save for future use.
The first part of that formula, revenue minus cost of goods sold, is also the formula
for gross income. So put another way, the net income formula is:
Or if you really want to simplify things, you can express the net income formula as:
Net income can be positive or negative. When your company has more revenues
than expenses, you have a positive net income. If your total expenses are more than
your revenues, you have a negative net income, also known as a net loss.
Using the formula above, you can find your company’s net income for any given
period: annual, quarterly, or monthly—whichever time frame works for your business.
Let’s say Wyatt’s Saddle Shop wants to find its net income for the first quarter of
2020. Here are the numbers Wyatt is working with:
Now, Wyatt can calculate his net income by subtracting expenses from gross
income:
Another useful net income number to track is operating net income. Operating net
income is similar to net income. However, it looks at a company’s profits from
operations alone, without taking into account income and expenses that aren’t
related to the core activities of the business. This includes things like income tax,
interest expense, interest income, and gains or losses from sales of fixed assets.
Or, put another way, you can calculate operating net income as:
Investors and lenders sometimes prefer to look at operating net income rather than
net income. This gives them a better idea of how profitable the company’s core
business activities are.
For example, a company might be losing money on its core operations. But if the
company sells a valuable piece of machinery, the game from that sale will be
included in the company’s net income. That gain might make it appear that the
company is doing well, when in fact, they’re struggling to stay afloat. Operating net
income takes the gain out of consideration, so users of the financial statements get a
clearer picture of the company’s profitability.
Let’s return to Wyatt’s Saddle Shop. If Wyatt wants to calculate his operating net
income for the first quarter of 2020, he could simply add back the interest expense to
his net income.
₱20,000 net income + ₱1,000 of interest expense = ₱21,000 operating net income
Calculating net income and operating net income is easy if you have good
bookkeeping. In that case, you likely already have a profit and loss statement
or income statement that shows your net income. Your company’s income statement
might even break out operating net income as a separate line item before adding
other income and expenses to arrive at net income.
Don’t have financial statements? Try a bookkeeping service like Bench. We’ll pair
you with a bookkeeper to do your books, and we’ll send you financial statements
every month, so you can always see your net income in the context of your business.

Let say the woman in th picture. She is Mrs. Pontemayor and she is my cousin in law
and she is pregnant. She is working as a Quality Assurance Engineer in Taiyo
Yuden Philippines in Mactan Export Processing Zone in Pusok, Lapu-Lapu City. She
is a member of SSS or Social Security System and wants to avail the maternity
leave. She earned an avearge monthly income of 21,371.12. How long can she have
the maternity leave? And how much will her income be in the entire period of the
leave?
Since , she is employed in a private company, it is mandatory for her to be a member
of SSS which is an institution that will provide her the so called "maternity benefit" for
women. Of course there is also a corresponding benefit for men, which we call
"paternity leave". And to answer the first question. Assuming that all the
requirements to avail the said benefits are met, then she will receive the amount
twice or 2.6 times her average monthly income, if her delivery is normal, then it is 2
times otherwise. (that is, caesarean), it is 2.6 times. More specifically, we assume
further that her delivery is caesarean, then sge received the maternity benefit for two
months and 18 days amounting to
21,371.12 x 2.6 = 55,564.912
Therefore Mrs. Pontemayor received the amount 55,564.912 good for 78 days.
Lets try to have these example. A public school elementary teacher. A normal
elementary teacher earned 24,647.00 for Teacher 3. She will received 49,294.00
Below is the computation:
24,647.00 x 2 = 49,294.00

When you’re employed in the private sector, how much salary you receive is tied
strictly to the number of hours you’ve worked. Doing overtime or under time will
cause a deviation from your usual salary. Contrary to what you’d expect, calculating
it isn’t as simple as multiplying your number of extra hours by a fixed rate.
If you’re working extra hours, there are two possible situations:
1. You’re showing up for work on a rest day or a holiday, not exceeding eight
hours
2. You’re working more than eight hours, whether it’s a regular or special day
Calculating Pay on Rest Days and Holidays
The main question you have to ask is: what kind of non-working day is this? Is it a
rest day, a regular holiday, or a special non-working day? Take note that it can fall
into more than one category: it can be both a rest day and a regular holiday, for
example.
Weekends–Saturday and Sunday–are usually allotted as rest days. Employees are
required by law to have at least one day (a full 24 hours) off every week.

Generic formula
=(reg_hrs*rate)+(ot_hrs*rate*1.5)
Explanation
To calculate overtime and pay associated with overtime, you can use the formulas
explained on this page. In formula in cell I5 is:
=(F5*H5)+(G5*H5*1.5)
How this formula works
Note: it's important to understand that Excel deals with time natively as fractions
of a day. So, 12:00 PM is .5, 6:00 AM is .25, 6 PM is .75, and so on. This works
fine for standard time and date calculations, but in many cases you'll want to
convert times to decimal hours to make other calculations more straightforward.
Finally, the sum of both calculations above is returned as the Total in column I.

LEARNING OUTCOMES:

AREA OF COMPETENCY: CRITICAL THINKING
REFERENCES
_________________________________________________________________
#1 Line Graphs
The most common, simplest, and
classic type of chart graph is the line
graph. This is the perfect solution for
showing multiple series of closely
related series of data. Since line
graphs are very light-weight (they
only consist of lines, as opposed to
more complex chart types, as
shown further below), they are great
for a minimalistic look.
#2 Bar Graphs
Bars (or columns) are the best
types of graphs for presenting a
single data series. Bar charts
have a much heavier weight to
them than line graphs do, so
they really emphasize a point
and stand out on the page.
Tips
Remove all gridlines
Reduce the gap width
between bars
#3 Combo Chart
The above two types of graphs can
be combined to create a combo
chart with bars and lines. This is
very useful when presenting two
data series that have a very
different scale and might be
expressed in different units. The
most common example is dollars
on one axis and percentage on the
other axis.
Tips
Delete borders and gridlines
Add a legend
Reduce the gap width for the bars
Adjust the axis
#4 Scatterplot
The scatterplot is excellent for showing the
relationship between two data series and
determining their correlation. The scatterplot is
great for showing what a distribution of data points
looks like and for drawing a line of best fit for
regression analysis.
Tips
Set the start and end points to be “totals”
Format positive and negatives
Clear away gridlines
#6 Pie Graph
Pie charts have a bad reputation and are known for being messy and hard to read.
However, if you’re trying to illustrate the percentage breakdown of a small number of
data points, then they can be very effective. For
example, the percentage of people who prefer bananas,
pineapples, and grapes.
Tips
Keep it 2-D only
Don’t graph more than five items in one pie
Use infrequently
Tips
Set gap width to zero
Add a subtle border between bars
Add data labels
#8 Gauge Chart
The gauge chart is perfect for graphing a single data point and showing where that
result fits on a scale from “bad” to “good”. Gauges are an advanced type of graph,
as Excel doesn’t have a standard
template for making them. To build
one you have to combine a pie and a
doughnut. Learn how in our data
visualization course.
Tips
Best for a single data point
Shows performance on a scale
(e.g., bad to good)
Learn via video instruction
Tips
Use stacked area
Graph data that is cumulative
Use colors carefully
#10 Spider chart / radar graph
A spider or radar graph is a very useful type of graph for showing qualitative data or
the overall “score” or comparison of multiple series. For example, a spider/radar can
be easily used to compare three different types of phones based on five criteria
(speed, screen size, camera quality, memory, apps).
Tips
Keep it simple
Only graph a few series/items
Format to be minimalistic
Remove markers
