How to use this calculator

  • Enter total revenue for the period.
  • Add COGS, operating expenses, interest, taxes, and optional non-cash items.
  • Use the result to review final profit and retained revenue.

What the result means

Net profit shows what remains after direct costs, operating costs, financing costs, taxes, and other adjustments.

Net Profit = Revenue - COGS - Operating Expenses - Interest - Taxes + Other Income - Other Expense. EBITDA = EBIT + Depreciation + Amortization.

This calculator is for practical business planning. It simplifies accounting treatment and does not replace formal financial statements.

Example calculation

Example: $100,000 revenue, $35,000 COGS, $25,000 operating expenses, $2,000 interest, and $6,000 taxes gives $32,000 net profit before optional adjustments.

Tips for better results

  • Improve gross margin before cutting essential operating capacity.
  • Separate one-time expenses from recurring costs when analyzing trend.
  • Track EBIT and EBITDA alongside net profit for clearer operating performance.
