03 FM · How it's worked out

How it's worked out

Each tier's rate applies only to the gross profit that falls inside that tier, the same way tax brackets work.

The placement's commission is what its gross profit earns, starting from wherever your year-to-date gross profit already stands. That's why the same deal can pay more late in the year.

The year-end projection takes your pace so far, gross profit divided by days elapsed, and carries it across 365 days.
