    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. 1Add item price and buyer-paid shipping to get seller revenue.
    2. 2Calculate optional tax and add it to the processing base without adding it to revenue.
    3. 3Calculate marketplace and processing fees from the editable assumptions.
    4. 4Add seller costs, then subtract fees and costs from seller revenue.
    5. 5Calculate margin against seller revenue and ROI against item cost.

    Formulas

    • Seller Revenue = price + shippingCharged
    • Sales Tax = Seller Revenue × salesTaxRate
    • Processing Base = Seller Revenue + Sales Tax
    • Marketplace Fee = Seller Revenue × marketplaceFeePercent
    • Processing Fee = Processing Base × processingFeePercent + processingFixedFee
    • Profit = Seller Revenue − Marketplace Fee − Processing Fee − Costs

    Important assumptions

    • New U.S. listing defaults: marketplace fee 0%, processing 3.3%, and fixed processing fee $0.45.
    • Sales tax defaults to 0%. Enter a rate to add collected tax to the processing base; collected tax is excluded from seller revenue and profit.
    • Seller revenue = sellingPrice + shippingCharged.
    • Costs excluding fees = itemCost + actualShippingCost + packagingCost + otherCosts.
    • Profit = seller revenue − marketplace fee − processing fee − costs excluding fees.

    Worked example

    $45 sale with $12 item cost

    Selling price $45, shipping charged $0, U.S. defaults, sales tax 0%, item cost $12, actual shipping $6, packaging $1, other costs $0.

    Seller revenue is $45. Marketplace fee is $0 and processing is $45 × 3.3% + $0.45 = $1.94. Costs excluding fees are $19, so profit is $24.06, margin is 53.5%, and ROI on item cost is 200.5%. Add a tax rate only when you want to model its effect on processing.
