Blended Production Model
The blended production model applies different production percentages to different revenue categories. This recognises that not all revenue streams carry the same margin or DVM involvement.
How It Works: Each category (professional services, labs, parasite/prescriptions, food/refills, OTC) has its own production rate. The DVM's earned amount = sum of (each category's revenue × its rate). The effective "blended rate" is a weighted average that depends on the revenue mix.
Bonus Logic (Quarterly):
1. Sum 3 months of earned amounts across all categories
2. Compare against 3 months of wages (total package ÷ 12 × 3)
3. If earned > wages → Bonus = earned − wages
4. If earned ≤ wages → No bonus, base salary protects the floor
Example: A DVM producing $50,000/mo in professional services at 24% and $14,000/mo in parasite at 13%: earned = $12,000 + $1,820 = $13,820/mo. If wages are $11,000/mo, quarterly bonus = ($13,820 × 3) − ($11,000 × 3) = $8,460.
