Falta de Padronização em Cálculo de Comissão e Desvios de Receita

3 verified sources

Definition

Seven distinct commission scenarios (APAP standards A-F, plus manchands, museums, and auction houses) create manual calculation errors. Lack of standardization across 15,000+ galleries results in revenue leakage through pricing errors, underbilled commissions, and missed markup opportunities.

Key Findings

  • Financial Impact: R$ 1.2M-R$ 3.6M annually (estimated 0.6%-1.8% of R$ 200M-R$ 270M market from calculation errors and unbilled services; typical 2-3% error rate in manual commission reconciliation)
  • Frequency: Per transaction; cumulative across ~500K annual transactions in Brazilian art market
  • Root Cause: Seven manual commission tiers without centralized enforcement; spreadsheet-based tracking; no audit trail for calculation variance

Why This Matters

Pitch: Brazilian art galleries lose R$ 1.2M-R$ 3.6M annually from commission calculation errors and underbilling due to fragmented commission structures (10 separate scenarios). Automation ensures consistent application across all sales channels.

With eligibility verified: R$ 1,418 credit (60.7% of tax). If verification fails: R$ 3,600 paid with no offset = R$ 2,182 unnecessary outlay per transaction. For 20 transactions/month = R$ 43,640 annual loss. Manual verification labor: 15 hours/month = R$ 3,000/month.
