About the Short-Term Sales Incentive Calculator
1. What's the point of this calculator?
- This tool helps you quickly estimate your potential monthly incentive payout. Just enter your annual base salary and monthly performance score, and it calculates what you could earn this month according to the plan rules.
2. What are the key rules this calculator uses?
The calculator follows the rules of our Short-Term Sales Incentive Plan:
- Pay Mix: 70% Base Salary / 30% Target Incentive. Your commission potential is 30% of total target compensation.
- Payout Threshold: You only start earning incentives when your performance exceeds 80%. If you hit 80% or less, the payout is $0.
- Upside / Cap: The maximum payout is 150% of your Monthly Target Incentive Earning (MTIE), reached at 120% achievement.
Understanding the Calculation
3. What is TIE and MTIE?
These terms define your target commission numbers:
- Annual Target Incentive Earning (TIE): The total commission you’d earn in a year if you hit 100% of your targets.
- Calculation: TIE = Base Salary × (30 ÷ 70)
- Monthly Target Incentive Earning (MTIE): Your monthly target payout if you achieve 100% of your monthly goal.
- Calculation: MTIE = TIE ÷ 12
4. How exactly does the payout ramp up?
The payout increases linearly based on your performance:
- ≤ 80% Achievement: $0 payout. Incentives start only above 80%.
- 80%–100% Achievement: Payout scales from $0 to 100% of MTIE.
- 100%–120% Achievement: Payout accelerates from 100% up to 150% of MTIE.
- > 120% Achievement: Payout is capped at 150% of MTIE.
5. Why is my Total Monthly Earnings higher than just my Base Pay?
Total Monthly Earnings = Monthly Base Pay + Calculated Payout
- Monthly Base Pay: Annual base salary ÷ 12
- Calculated Payout: Commission earned based on monthly performance
