About this bonus allocation model spreadsheet template
This Bonus Allocation Model template provides a structured framework for calculating employee bonuses based on role-based targets, individual performance scores, company-wide modifiers, and manager discretionary adjustments. The four-sheet workbook covers the full workflow from individual calculation through manager review to department-level dashboard summaries.
The Bonus Register sheet computes target bonus, performance factor, preliminary bonus, and final bonus for each employee, with built-in cap checks and status flags. The Review Queue isolates employees needing calibration, while the Bonus Dashboard aggregates results by department for leadership visibility.
Every cell, formula, and label is fully editable in WPS Office, Microsoft Excel, or Google Sheets. Adapt the target percentages, performance scales, company factors, and manager adjustment bands to match your organization's compensation policy.
