Producer Commission Calculator

Calculate a producer’s commission split on new and renewal business and how much the agency retains.

How the producer commission calculator works

Agencies typically pay producers a share of the agency commission — a higher split on new business than on renewals. This calculator shows producer comp, agency retention and how it compares with a draw.

Formula

Producer comp = New premium × Agency new rate × Producer new split + Renewal premium × Agency renewal rate × Producer renewal split.

How to use it

  1. Enter new and renewal premium.
  2. Enter the agency commission rates.
  3. Enter the producer’s splits and any draw.

Worked example

$400K new at 15% with a 40% split plus $1.1M renewal at 13% with a 25% split pays the producer $24,000 + $35,750 = $59,750.
