Calculation method

Use the same order assumptions on both sides.

Each channel subtracts product cost, percentage and fixed fees, fulfillment, advertising, and expected return loss from the same sale price. Monthly profit multiplies per-order profit by the same volume. The calculator supplies no platform rates or recommendation: confirm fee bases, category rules, taxes, fulfillment dimensions, return behavior, and account terms before choosing a channel.

Open the verified methodology for formula provenance, assumptions, a worked example, and limitations.
