Margin with commission as part of selling price 2019-02-13
From Anni:
I need to find selling price to put us at 24% margin.
15% commission is based on selling price and is included in our cost.
I'm trying to do it excel and keep getting a circular reference.
Total cost= cost + commission (15% of selling price)
Selling price=total cost + 24% margin

Calculating markup 2009-02-03
From Tonya:
I'm trying to figure out the formula for the following, I have a product that I want to receive a certain profit, but with this product I also have to pay a percentage of commission to someone. I need to know how to calculate my new selling price taking into account the markup percentage, but I don't want my cut to be lowered. I have calculated the markup percentage to get my new selling price with the commission, but it lowers my cut once I pay the commission and I don't want it to do that. Thanks

Actural cost, selling price and commission 2008-02-21
From LiSa:
I have a question about a few things if anyone can answer... ex. actual cost (AC) = $1000 selling price (SP) = $ amount earned for company (C) = 15% of... selling price? commission 1 (C1) = 2.5% commission 2 (C2) = 2.5% How would you calculate how much the company's commission amount would be as well as the amounts for the other 2 that get 2.5%? And what would the selling price be? (the 15% $ + 2.5% $ + 2.5% $ ?) Is the 2.5% taken from the original amount? I am soooo confused! If anyone could help, that would be great!
