Cash offer versus future spread.
When a dealer buys as principal, the seller can evaluate the firm cash offer but may not know the dealer's later sale price, cost or margin. Compare the offer with supported alternatives; do not label an unknown spread as a disclosed commission.

This is planning arithmetic, not legal, tax, appraisal, brokerage or accounting advice.
What is known intermediary revenue?
This worksheet adds disclosed commission and disclosed intermediary fees. It cannot calculate an undisclosed dealer resale spread.
Does MBB receive or store these numbers?
No. Arithmetic runs locally in the browser with no submit action, fetch request or storage of entered values.
Why include buyer premium?
A buyer premium may affect bidding and the intermediary's total economics even when it is paid on top of the seller's price.
Is seller net the same as taxable proceeds?
Not necessarily. This calculator is not tax or accounting advice; obtain professional transaction-specific guidance.
