Math help needed!

So all you forum geniuses, now for something REALLY off-topic

our financial year is at an end in the company and I am double checking some of the companies figures for the calculation of my bonus (if any). The bonus calculation is a complex one relying on multiplication factors. I need your help to double check my calculations.

Instance 1:

-2% = Factor 0
2% = Factor 1
20% = Factor 1.5
18.15% = Factor ?

Instance 2:

-2% = Factor 0
2% = Factor 1
20% = Factor 1.5
14.47% = Factor ?

Instance 3:

28% = Factor 0
32% = Factor 1
36% = Factor 1.5
33.68% = Factor ?


Instance 1 = Factor 1.45
Instance 2 = Factor 1.35
Instance 3 = Factor 1.21

Can anyone confirm these results?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Dear math,

Please buy a calculator and solve your own problems. I am not a therapist.

Do you know that there are intermediate factors, or does one have to hit the next level to achieve the next factor?

I think (wild a** guessing) your numbers are close enough unless we are talking 6 figure bonus, in which case I don't think it will matter.
