I went off topic.
My contracts give me a small percentage of the amount the publisher receives from the bookseller. Your poor independent bookseller with one or two copies pays more than the bulk buyers (say 66% of published price) who pay quite a bit less. My statement tells me how much the publisher has received but not how many copies have sold.
