About This Calculator

This calculator computes gross profit and profit margin — the percentage of revenue that remains as profit after subtracting the cost of goods sold (COGS) — a fundamental metric for pricing and business health.

How This Is Calculated

Profit Margin % = (Revenue − COGS) ÷ Revenue × 100

$100,000 revenue with $60,000 COGS yields $40,000 gross profit — a 40% profit margin.

Assumptions

  • Uses gross profit margin (revenue minus COGS only); does not subtract operating expenses, taxes, or interest — see net margin for a fuller picture.

Frequently Asked Questions

It varies significantly by industry — software and services businesses often see 60-80%+ gross margins, while retail and grocery often run much lower (20-30%) due to high COGS. Compare against industry benchmarks rather than a single universal target.
