I read all your interesting emails.  Everyone agrees that
it isn't easy to determine what's most important.  Factors
such as employee salary, the priorities of the company
(is it sale$ or the number of sales they make) are all
different.

So let's put that all aside and say that my client has
picked the one factor that is the most important to them
in terms of weighing the profit%.  Let's say that they
pick the profit$ as most immportant.  I could simly sort
the RBase report by profit% DESC, and then profit$ DESC:
  
   Salesman1     $1,500    40%
   Salesman2        150    40
   Salesman3      2,000    38
   Salesman4      1,500    38

But again this doesn't look fair because Salesman3 was
clearly more 'productive' than Salesman2!

So here's my final question on this.  Is there a formula
where I can 'weigh' the profit% by the profit$ so that
it gives me a number that is comparable between all 4 of
these guys!
