Greetings,

I want to know how I can calculate total commission based on total units sold. For example, if I sold 137 units illustrated below, there is a commission rate per unit sold for each range. The first 75 sold would be multiplied by $1.05 = $78.7. The next 45 fall within the 76 to 120 range multiplied by $1.35 = $60.8 and there are 17 units remaining to be multiplied by $1.75 = $29.8. Total commission therefore would = $169.3 for the sale of 137 units.
