Net Profit Calculator

Calculate bottom-line net profit, operating profit (EBIT), and net margin percentage after deducting COGS, operating overhead (SG&A), interest, and taxes.

Multi-Tier Expense Streams

Net Income / Net Profit Formula

Net Profit = Revenue - (COGS + Operating SG&A + Interest + Taxes); Net Margin % = (Net Profit / Revenue) × 100
  • Operating SG&A: Selling, general, and administrative operating expenses.
  • EBIT: Operating profit before non-operating debt interest and income tax provisions.

Step-by-Step Worked Example

Scenario: A company with $500,000 revenue, $200,000 COGS, $180,000 SG&A, $15,000 interest, and $25,000 taxes

Calculation Steps:

  1. Gross Profit = $500,000 - $200,000 = $300,000
  2. Operating Profit (EBIT) = $300,000 - $180,000 = $120,000
  3. Net Profit = $120,000 - $15,000 - $25,000 = $80,000
  4. Net Profit Margin = ($80,000 / $500,000) × 100 = 16.0%
Result: Net profit is $80,000 on $500,000 revenue, achieving a 16.0% net profit margin after all operating and financial expenses.
