Hi,

I want to calculate product prices on a large scale, however the formula that I have been using does not work for selling on a certain platform. This is because the platform in question does not only want a commission in the form of a % of the product price, but also a variable price depended on the product price.

The commission fees are as follows:
-Product price is lower than €10,- -> commission fee of 10% + €0,2
-Product price is between €10,- and €20,- -> commission fee of 10% + €0,4
-Product price is higher than €20,- -> commission fee of 10% + €0,8

For now I had the formula for price = costs/1-(commission + margin). Where price is the product price excl. vat, costs are the total costs of the product, commission is the % of commission and margin is the % of margin. Now I need to find a way to incooperate the changing 0,2/0,4/0,8 which is dependend on the output price.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

How would this work? Because the %margin and the %commission have to include the costs of the 0,2/0,4/0,8?

Can you give an example in Excel?
