How it works
How the Shopify ROI Calculator works
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
- 1Product costs = attributedRevenue × costOfGoodsPercent/100.
- 2Shipping costs = attributedRevenue × shippingPercent/100.
- 3Payment fees = attributedRevenue × transaction%/100 + fixed × orderCount.
- 4Total cost = adSpend + productCosts + shippingCosts + paymentFees.
- 5Net profit = attributedRevenue − totalCost.
- 6ROAS = attributedRevenue / adSpend.
- 7ROI = netProfit / adSpend × 100.
- 8BreakEvenROAS = 1 / (1 − costRate) where costRate = product% + shipping% + txn%.
Formulas
- Product = revenue × COGS%
- Shipping = revenue × ship%
- Fees = revenue × txn% + fixed × orders
- TotalCost = adSpend + product + shipping + fees
- NetProfit = revenue − totalCost
- ROAS = revenue / adSpend
- ROI = netProfit / adSpend × 100
- BreakEvenROAS = 1 / (1 − costRate)
Important assumptions
- Product and shipping modeled as percent of attributed revenue for quick what-if.
- Payment fees = revenue × processing% + fixed × order count.
- Break-even ROAS simplified ignores fixed fee for headline number but net profit includes fixed.
- Attributed revenue and spend should be same time window.
- Does not include creative costs, agency, or overhead unless added to ad spend.
