Commission product income
A few things worth knowing. + The year is fixed at 46 selling weeks, on the assumption you take about 6 weeks off for holidays and vacation; if your year looks different, every figure scales with it. Retail is modelled on its own here — it adds to whatever you earn on services in either model. The commission figure is the share of the retail price your salon pays you. The suite figure is your margin over wholesale, so what is left after you have bought the product in. Figures are before income tax and exclude any opening stock order. This is an estimate to help you think it through, not tax or financial advice.
