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
- 1Select the rating scenario or enter a commission override.
- 2Apply commission to the sale price and add the selected seller shipping cost.
- 3Apply the optional cash-out estimate to payout after commission and shipping.
- 4Subtract GOAT charges and seller costs from the sale price.
- 5Effective cost rate divides modeled GOAT charges by sale price.
Formulas
- Commission = salePrice × selected commission%
- Shipping fee = $0 for modeled drop-off, otherwise editable prepaid-label fee
- Cash-out = payout after commission and label × cash-out% or editable flat estimate
- Total GOAT charges = commission + shipping fee + cash-out
- Net profit = sale price − total GOAT charges − product − packaging − fulfillment − other costs
Important assumptions
- This is a USD GOAT US seller-side planning model.
- Rating scenarios start at 9.5% for good standing or rating 90+, 15% for rating 70 to 89, 20% for rating 50 to 69, and 25% for a low-rating exception. Rates remain editable.
- Prepaid US shipping-label cost starts at $5. US drop-off can be modeled at $0.
- Cash-out is optional. The 2.9% percentage and $5 flat values are editable estimates because public references conflict.
- GOAT charges are modeled on a completed sale, not an unsold listing.
- Verify current GOAT rating, shipping, authentication, payout, and cash-out terms before acting.
