Order Profit Calculator

Most stores work out profit as "selling price minus purchase price". This calculator goes down to the items that eat that difference in a cash-on-delivery market.

The whole calculation runs in your browser. No figure is sent to a server or stored.

Work out your number

Profit before return costsEGP 101.00
The delivered order's share of returns−EGP 19.41
Net profit per orderEGP 81.59
Net margin11.7%

Every delivered order leaves 81.59 pounds after all variable costs and its share of returns.

The equation

Gross per delivered order = Price − COGS − Shipping − Fees − Packing − Confirmation − Ads
Return cost per delivered = Return cost × ReturnRate ÷ (1 − ReturnRate)
Net profit per order      = Gross − Return cost per delivered

Why divide by (1 − return rate): the cost of returns is carried by the successful order. At a 15% return rate, every 85 successful orders carry the cost of 15 returns — so the successful order's share is more than 15% of the cost, not equal to it.

The model's limits: per single order and variable costs only. Rent and fixed salaries are not included. It also assumes returned goods come back sellable — if not, raise the cost of a return.

What next?

The calculator works on averages. Real profit differs from product to product and governorate to governorate — Rabehni computes it for each order separately from your store data.
