    How it works

    Methodology & formulas

    This calculator is transparent by design. Review the steps and formulas so you can trust the estimate and adjust assumptions when your dashboard differs.

    Calculation steps

    1. 1Pick profit multiple from industry or custom.
    2. 2Calculate earnings-based valuation from profit times multiple.
    3. 3Calculate revenue-based valuation using half multiple as revenue proxy.
    4. 4Add tangible assets if enabled.
    5. 5Use max of earnings vs revenue plus assets for headline total to avoid undervaluing asset-light businesses.
    6. 6Apply 80% to 120% band for range.

    Formulas

    • actualMultiple = custom if Custom else industryMultiple
    • earningsValuation = profit × multiple
    • revenueValuation = revenue × (multiple × 0.5)
    • total = max(earningsValuation, revenueValuation) + assets
    • low = total × 0.8, high = total × 1.2

    Important assumptions

    • Actual multiple = customMultiple if industryMultiple is 0 (Custom), otherwise industryMultiple.
    • Earnings valuation = annualNetProfit × actualMultiple.
    • Revenue valuation = annualRevenue × (actualMultiple × 0.5). Revenue multiple assumed half earnings multiple for cross-check.
    • Asset value added only if includeAssets is true.
    • Total valuation = max(earningsValuation, revenueValuation) + assetValueField.
    • Range low = total × 0.8, high = total × 1.2 to show negotiation band.
    • Simplified model — no DCF, growth premium, or risk adjustments.

    Worked example

    $100k profit ecommerce store

    Annual profit $100k, revenue $500k, ecommerce multiple 3x, no extra assets.

    Earnings valuation $300k, revenue check $750k (500k × 1.5x implied), total takes max $750k, range $600k to $900k. For lower revenue multiple markets, buyers often anchor closer to earnings $300k — use revenue check as upside story for growth.
