How it is calculated

  1. Net sales = selling price ÷ (1 + GST rate). The GST collected belongs to the government, so it is excluded from profit.
  2. Marketplace fees = selling price × (commission + payment fee) + fixed, shipping and storage fees.
  3. GST on fees is counted as a cost only when you cannot claim it back as input credit.
  4. Returns cost = return rate × cost per return, spread across every unit sold.
  5. Profit = net sales − fees − product, freight, packaging, ad and return costs. Margin = profit ÷ net sales. ROI = profit ÷ product and freight cost.
  6. Break-even price is the selling price at which profit is exactly zero with the same fees and costs.
