Show Total Vs Commissionable Sales

[MomToEli]

I thought I knew the difference here, but the math isn't working out ...

I thought it Commissionable Sales excludes: any PHD (there is none on this show), FPV, 1/2 price items and host specials. I'm off by $11.62 ... what am I missing?

commissionable sales also excludes the booking benefit that a previous host purchases...

Tax maybe?

 

[chefann]

Host purchases at a discount. That's probably what's throwing you off. Did your host buy anything above the FPV?

Yes, she did ... and I did forget the $12.65 discount ... which puts me off $1.03 the other way ...

ARGGGGGHHHHH! I remember why I decided I did NOT like being an accountant!!!!

Sandy, I can't picture you pushing a pencil wearing a little green glare visor, anyway.

I did, though. For about 4 years. It was awful. No offense to accounts - I know it's just my personality, but it got to the point where I could multitask something fierce ... like listen to talk radio, talk on the phone, and run columns of numbers all at the same time - getting the right answer and being fully aware of what was going on in the other two activities. The only excitment came when I was off something like $1.03!

I openly rebel now. I only balance my checkbook once a year ...

Oh, and I write in RED INK just for the fun of it

Yes, by golly, and I'm darned proud of it! Move over James Dean ... this girl HAS a cause! I'm just not real sure what it is, but I'm sure I have one!
