Assumptions & sources

You enter the tax set-aside percentage. We don't estimate taxes because they depend on your country, structure and circumstances.

  • Excludes sales tax/VAT/GST, refunds, chargebacks, payout and FX fees (unless toggled), and promotions.
  • No vendor data: this calculator only uses the numbers you enter.

How it works

  1. Profit = total revenue − business expenses.
  2. Set-aside = profit × your set-aside %. Nothing is set aside if you made a loss.
  3. Savings = what's left × your savings %.
  4. Take-home = profit − set-aside − savings. Shown per month, per quarter (× 3) and per year (× 12).

Worked example

$6,000 revenue, $1,500 expenses and a 25% set-aside: profit $4,500, set-aside $1,125 ($3,375 a quarter), take-home $3,375 a month.
