Compensation Calculation

Introduction

As an author you receive 80% of the net profits generated from sale. The new profit is calculated with a simple formula

Net Profit = MRP of Book - (Distribution Cost + Printing Cost)

MRP is based on details mentioned by you while updating your Metadata

Distribution Cost is 45% off the MRP

Printing Cost is determined based on Trim Size, pages and Format of your book

For e.g

Book MRP - US$ 39.00

Printing Cost - US$ 6

Then 

Net Profits = $39 - (45% + $6)

Net Profits = $39 - ($17.55 + $6)

Net Profits = $15.45

Authors Share = $12.36
