Based on the example, your fee table will look similar to the following figure:
Important
The fees are calculated cumulatively (that is, the base fee from each
previous tier is added to the total fees). Therefore, when you enter
multiple-tiered fees, subtract the previous tier base fee from the base fee
of the tier you are currently adding to determine the amount to enter in
the
Base
field.
For example, if the base fee for the first tier of a fee structure is $250 for
a sales price of up to $250,000, enter $250 in the
Base
field. If the
second tier base fee is $500 for a sales price between $250,001 and
$500,000, subtract the first tier base fee ($250) from the second tier
base fee ($500) and enter the result ($250) in the
Base
field.
