Profit Formula
Profit = Revenue − Costs, Profit % = (Profit ÷ Revenue) × 100Example
- 1.Revenue: $2,500
- 2.Costs: $1,800
- 3.Profit = $2,500 − $1,800 = $700
- 4.Profit % = $700 ÷ $2,500 × 100 = 28%
Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently asked questions about the Profit Calculator
How is this different from the Profit Margin Calculator?+
They use the same underlying formula. This tool is framed as a general profit check for a project or period, while the Profit Margin Calculator is framed specifically for a single product's pricing.
Should I include taxes in costs?+
Include business-related taxes if you want a post-tax profit figure. For a simple operating profit check, most people exclude income tax and include only direct operating costs.
