I found the following source on this:
"A Box Office Bonus is just that... a bonus paid to you for good box office performance. Hey, if the movie does well, it'll be in part because of your great script, right? So how does that work?
If the box office gross surpasses the budget of the film (and you'll want to define what constitutes the "budget- too) you may receive a bonus. This can be a tiered structure as the box office reaches ever higher multiples of the budget. For example:
$10, 000 when box exceeds 2.5 x budget
another $10K when box exceeds 3 x budget
another $10K when box exceeds 3.5 x budget
a balloon $30K when box exceeds 4 x budget"

Are these numbers typical? High? Low? Should the number be a % of the budget? Of the writer's fee? Or ??
