Revenue isn't profit and platform ROAS isn't your ROAS. Enter one period's totals and this builds the real P&L waterfall — after fees, returns, fulfillment, ads, COGS and overhead — plus the ROAS and CAC you actually need to beat.

Break-even

Revenue needed for a 15% operating margin at today's cost ratios: not reachable — contribution margin is below the target

Units needed to cover fixed overhead + ad spend + owner comp: n/a — per-unit contribution is not positive

Margin before ads: 17.0% · contribution/order: -$2.77

Real fee benchmarks for tax prep, bookkeeping, payroll, and advisory — by service and business type.

How it works

  • Enter the period's totals: gross sales and every deduction (discounts, returns, marketplace + payment fees, fulfillment, FBA, packaging), plus orders, units, and customer counts.
  • Add each product's landed unit cost and units sold — that's COGS.
  • Add ad spend and attributed revenue per channel; enter the platform-reported ROAS if you have it.
  • Net revenue = gross − discounts/returns/chargebacks/cancellations − marketplace/payment fees. Contribution profit then subtracts fulfillment, packaging and ad spend; operating profit subtracts fixed overhead.
  • Break-even ROAS = 100 ÷ margin-before-ads %. Break-even CAC = contribution per order before ads.

Assumptions

  • One period at a time, entered as aggregate totals (not per-order).
  • COGS is unit cost × units sold from the product list; no landed-cost allocation or inventory reconciliation in this view.
  • Owner compensation is tracked separately and not deducted before operating profit.
  • Customer-mix estimates assume similar average order value for new vs. returning buyers.
  • Nothing is saved — reloading resets to the sample data.
