Insert Agent's Current Split % with the office.
If an agent split on an individual commission is varied (e.g. 50, 55, 60, etc. on the same commission), you will need to calculate the split % manually. The example below assumes this is the Agent's first transaction and they are starting at a 50/50 split as per the ICA.
To calculate the Agent Current Split % field percentage in this example, you divide the amount the agent is receiving by the gross commission. Let's go through the calculation step by step:
- Gross commission: $500,000
- Agent's split on the first $100,000: 50% = $50,000
- Agent's split on the next $80,000: 55% $44,000
- Agent's split on the next $80,000: 60% = $48,000
- Agent's split on the next $60,000: 65% = $39,000
- Agent's split on the remaining balance of $180,000: 70% = $126,000
- The total amount the agent receives is $50,000 + $44,000 + $48,000 + $39,000 + $126,000 = $307,000.
To calculate the Agent Current Split % field, divide the amount the agent is receiving ($307,000) by the gross commission ($500,000):
Agent Current Split % $307,000/$500,000 = 0.614 = 61.4%
Therefore, the Agent Current Split % field should be manually entered as 61.4%.
