Calculation Methodology
Base Metrics Calculation:
Total Cost = Cost Price × Quantity
Total Revenue = Selling Price × Quantity (adjusted for bulk discounts)
Expense Calculations:
Tax Amount = Revenue × (Tax Rate / 100)
Payment Fees = Revenue × (Payment Fees Percentage / 100)
Total Expenses = Sum of all operational costs
Profit Metrics:
Gross Profit = Total Revenue - Total Cost
Net Profit = Gross Profit - Total Expenses
Profit Margin = (Net Profit / Total Revenue) × 100
Markup = ((Selling Price - Cost Price) / Cost Price) × 100
Break-even Price = (Total Cost + Total Expenses) / Quantity
