Monthly commissions are 11.5 percent of monthly sales. You could, of
course, calculate each commission by hand. However, it would be faster to
simply transfer the data in your SALES data base to a Multiplan
spreadsheet, where Multiplan can calculate the commissions for you.
You can then transfer the data from your spreadsheet to a Word document
containing the memo you write to the payroll department.
