About the Gross Profit Calculator

The ByteTools Gross Profit Calculator works out how much a product or business keeps after the direct cost of what it sells. Enter total revenue and the cost of goods sold, and it returns the gross profit in currency and the gross profit margin as a percentage.

It is useful for small-business owners, retailers and finance students checking profitability at the product or company level. Gross margin is a core health metric — it shows how much of each sale is left to cover overheads and profit before other expenses.

All math runs locally in your browser with nothing uploaded, so your revenue and cost figures stay private. Results are estimates for reporting and planning and are not financial advice.

Frequently asked questions

How do you calculate gross profit?

Gross profit is revenue minus the cost of goods sold. If you make $100,000 in sales and the goods cost $60,000, your gross profit is $40,000. This calculator subtracts the two figures and also expresses the result as a margin percentage.

What is gross profit margin?

Gross profit margin is gross profit divided by revenue, times 100. With $40,000 profit on $100,000 revenue, the margin is 40%. It shows what share of each sales dollar remains after direct costs, before overheads, wages and other expenses.

What is included in cost of goods sold?

COGS covers the direct costs of producing or buying what you sell — materials, manufacturing labour and inbound freight, for example. It excludes indirect costs like rent, marketing and admin, which are why gross profit is higher than net profit.

What is a good gross profit margin?

It varies widely by industry: software and services often exceed 70%, while retail and manufacturing can be much lower. Compare your margin with peers in your sector and track it over time rather than against a single universal benchmark.

Is my business data private?

Yes. Everything is calculated in your browser and nothing is uploaded or saved, so your revenue and cost figures stay confidential.
