Formula to increase percentage in smooth ramp

Hi All,
I had a wonderful formula that I lost and I'm trying to rebuild.

What I would like to do is, gradually increase a percentage applied to a total between multiple values.

For example, if the total was 1,000,000 I would like to calculate 5.5%, but as the total increased to 1,500,000, I would like the percentage to increase to 6.5%, then if the total increased to 2,000,000 or above I would like the percentage to increase to 7.5% in a smooth ramp. For now that's as far as I need to go but I'm sure one day I'll need to expand on this and continue adding other "breakpoints" for the increases.

I used the below formula that I found on a previous post but cannot get my 3rd piece to work.
=IFS(P14<=1000000,0.055*P14,AND(P14>1000000,P14<=1500000),P14*0.065)

This is where I'm failing (in red)...
=IFS(P14<=1000000,0.055*P14,AND(P14>1000000,P14<=1500000),P14*0.065),AND(P14>=1500000,P14<=2000000),P14*.075)

Thanks
Steph

How about
Excel Formula:
=IF(P14<=1000000,0.055*P14,IF(P14<=1500000,P14*0.065,IF(P14<=2000000,P14*0.075,"")))

@Fluff as soon as it crosses 2MM the formula reads FALSE. Up to 2MM it works. When it got to 2,000,001 that's when the FALSE response appears.

Maybe you mean this?
Code:
=IF(P14<=1000000,0.055*P14,IF(P14<=1500000,P14*0.065,P14*0.075,""))

In that case you did not use the formula I suggested.
