A Book Profit Calculator is a financial tool designed to help investors, traders, and businesses determine the profit or loss generated from the sale of books, stocks, or other assets. It is commonly used in trading, publishing, and accounting to assess financial performance accurately.
Key Features of a Book Profit Calculator
Cost Price (CP) Input – The original purchase price of the book/asset.
Selling Price (SP) Input – The price at which the book/asset is sold.
Quantity – The number of units sold (if applicable).
Profit/Loss Calculation – Computes net gain or loss based on CP and SP.

How It Works
The calculator uses basic financial formulas to determine profit or loss:
1. Profit Calculation
Profit (P) = Selling Price (SP) – Cost Price (CP)
Profit Percentage (%) = (Profit / CP) × 100
2. Loss Calculation
Loss (L) = Cost Price (CP) – Selling Price (SP)
Loss Percentage (%) = (Loss / CP) × 100
Example Calculation
CP = $50, SP = $70
Profit = $70 – $50 = $20
Profit % = ($20 / $50) × 100 = 40%
