eBay Monthly Revenue Calculator
Estimate your monthly eBay revenue, fees, costs, and profit based on sales volume, average selling price, and selling expenses.
Overview
The eBay Monthly Revenue Calculator helps you estimate how much you bring in each month from eBay sales and how much you keep after fees and costs. Enter your monthly items sold, average sale price, fee rates, product cost, and other monthly expenses to get a simple revenue and profit estimate.
How it works
The calculator multiplies the number of items sold by the average sale price to estimate gross monthly revenue. It then calculates eBay fees and payment processing fees as percentages of revenue, adds your cost of goods sold and other monthly expenses, and subtracts total costs from revenue to estimate net profit. Profit margin is calculated as net profit divided by gross revenue.
