Worked Example
Sample Calculation
Inputs: Revenue $5,000, Costs $3,000, Tax Rate 20%, Growth Rate 5%, Cost Growth 2%, Weeks 12
- Gross Profit: $5,000 − $3,000 = $2,000
- Taxes: $2,000 × 20% = $400
- Net Profit: $2,000 − $400 = $1,600
- Profit Margin: ($1,600 / $5,000) × 100 = 32%
- After 12 weeks: Projected weekly profit ~$2,450

Tips for Maximizing Weekly Profit
Focus on Revenue Growth
Even small weekly growth rates compound significantly over time. A 5% weekly growth rate doubles your revenue in about 14 weeks.
Control Costs
Monitor your cost growth rate. If costs grow faster than revenue, your profit margin will shrink.
Run Scenarios
Use the history feature to compare different growth assumptions and find the best strategy.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Underestimating costs: Include all expenses, even small ones.
- Ignoring taxes: Always account for tax liability.
- Overestimating growth: Be realistic about growth rates.
- Forgetting one-time expenses: Spread them over time for accurate weekly averages.
