What is a sales commission and how does it work?
A sales commission is an amount or percentage paid to a sales rep or employee for completing successful sales. It is typically calculated as a percentage of realized sales and classified within Selling expenses in the financial statements.
Base formula:
Commission = sales value × commission rate (%)
Example: a sales rep with SAR 100,000 in total sales and a 5% commission rate earns SAR 100,000 × 5% = SAR 5,000.
