FAQ
Common questions
Why does the calculator ask for a referral-fee amount instead of a rate?
Amazon referral fees vary by category and may include price tiers or a minimum fee. The SKU-specific dollar result avoids pretending one percentage covers every order.
Does this cover every Amazon cost?
No. Include applicable selling-plan, inventory, aged-inventory, inbound placement, storage, returns, removal, disposal, advertising, and optional-program charges when they apply.
How should I allocate the Professional plan?
Keep it as monthly overhead or divide it by a conservative completed-order scenario. Do not present one optimistic allocation as a permanent per-order fee.
What belongs in seller revenue?
Use the amount economically belonging to the seller for the order. Do not treat marketplace-remitted tax or unrelated settlement adjustments as product revenue.
Where can I verify the inputs?
Use sell.amazon.com/pricing, Amazon's Revenue Calculator, Fee and Economics Preview report, and the transaction-level fee detail in Seller Central.
Evaluate Amazon profit beyond the referral percentage
Amazon order economics can include referral, fulfillment, inbound placement, storage, preparation, returns, removal, and advertising costs. This calculator focuses on the entered per-order charges. Convert periodic expenses into realistic unit averages before deciding whether a listing supports inventory investment.
Size tier and shipping weight can change fulfillment cost sharply. Measure the packaged product rather than the bare item and compare the fee preview in Seller Central. A small packaging adjustment may move a product into another tier and change margin more than a minor price increase.
Advertising should be allocated per completed order, while return losses should be modeled from historical rates. A product with strong sales but frequent returns can consume fees twice, create unsellable inventory, and tie up cash. Test conservative scenarios before reordering.
Referral rates and program charges vary by category, marketplace, season, and account settings. Reconcile the calculator with a recent transaction report and include tax treatment separately. The result is a planning contribution, not an Amazon settlement forecast or accounting statement.
