Example Scenario

Marketplace Product Profit Analysis

An online seller calculates the profitability of a product sold through Shopee by including marketplace fees, affiliate commissions, advertising costs, packaging expenses, and product costs to determine actual net earnings per order.

Technical Notes

Gross sales are calculated using selling price multiplied by total quantity sold.

Marketplace-related fees such as admin fees, payment processing, affiliate commissions, and shipping subsidies are calculated as percentage-based deductions from gross sales.

Operational costs include product sourcing, packaging, advertising, and miscellaneous expenses which directly reduce final profit.

Net profit is calculated by subtracting all marketplace fees and operational costs from total gross sales revenue.

Profit margin percentage represents the proportion of net profit compared to total sales revenue.

Actual marketplace fee structures may change depending on promotions, seller level, category, campaign participation, or platform policy updates.

Platform presets provide estimated default fee percentages for Shopee, Tokopedia, TikTok Shop, and Lazada. Actual fees may vary by seller level, category, and promotions.

Break-even price is the minimum selling price needed to cover all non-percentage costs (product, packaging, other, ads) after marketplace fees are deducted.

The price solver calculates the required selling price to achieve a specific target profit margin after all fees and costs.

Common Mistakes

Ignoring affiliate commission costs
Underestimating advertising expenses
Forgetting packaging and operational costs
Using outdated marketplace fee percentages
Confusing gross sales with net profit
Ignoring shipping subsidy deductions
Setting product prices without margin analysis
Assuming all marketplaces use identical fee structures
