    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. 1Apply the selected rating commission to each candidate sale price.
    2. 2Add prepaid label cost unless drop-off mode is selected.
    3. 3Apply the optional percentage or flat cash-out estimate after commission and label.
    4. 4Search for the lowest price that reaches target profit and target margin, then report the higher requirement.

    Formulas

    • Commission = salePrice × selected rate
    • Payout before cash-out = salePrice − commission − shipping fee
    • Cash-out = payout before cash-out × estimate% or flat estimate
    • Projected profit = salePrice − GOAT charges − product − packaging − fulfillment − other costs
    • Recommended price = higher of the prices that reach target profit and target margin

    Important assumptions

    • USD GOAT US planning model with editable rating, shipping, and cash-out assumptions.
    • The price solve uses 9.5%, 15%, 20%, or 25% rating scenarios unless an override is selected.
    • Prepaid label starts at $5; modeled drop-off is $0.
    • Cash-out defaults to an approximate 2.9% of payout and can be changed or removed.
    • The solve searches for the lowest price that reaches both the target profit and target margin. Verify current account terms before listing.
