How are Managers paid?

I´m a translator.

I´m curious. How are managers paid?

I know that they earn money over their translator´s approved translations, but... how much, exactly?

Say, a manager approves a U$S 5 translation. How much money does he/she earn over that?

A manager can make translations himself/herself, and submit them already approved. Does he/she earn the translator AND the manager fee in that case?

Let´s hope some manager would want to illustrate us over this point. :)

# You can perform translations of program descriptions at a cost of $6 per 1,800 characters.
# You are responsible for checking translations made by the translators attached to you. You will be able to view the translations in the manager interface on receipt of the corresponding message from our company. The cost of checking and correcting each translation is $1.5 per 1,800 characters. If a translation requires considerable editing or is subject to redoing (because it is factually incorrect or its meaning does not fully correspond to the meaning of the original text), you will be able to send part of the translation or the whole translation back to the translator automatically or notify the translator about the problem in a written form (via e-mail). You will also be responsible for rating each translation, which will sufficiently facilitate our further work. Checked translations are to be approved within one working day.
# In future, you will be able to choose and attach other translators to your group and perform your own translations at a cost of $6.5 per 1,800 characters (increased by approximately 30%).


And we are paid as you are.
