What most profit calculators miss

A published fee percentage tells you what Amazon should pay, not what actually lands. A few things routinely eat into that estimate after the fact:

How it's calculated

Total Income = Item Subtotal + Shipping Revenue − Discounts

Commission = your rate × Item Subtotal

Total Deductions = Item Cost + Commission + Fulfillment Fee (FBA only) or Shipping Cost (seller-fulfilled only) + Packaging Cost + Kitting Cost

Estimated Profit = Total Income − Total Deductions

Break-even item subtotal is where Estimated Profit reaches zero, given your other costs and commission rate.

The Fulfillment toggle swaps which one line applies: FBA shows Fulfillment Fee and hides Shipping Cost; Seller-fulfilled shows Shipping Cost and hides Fulfillment Fee. Each mode remembers its own numbers.

Frequently asked questions

How do I calculate Amazon profit per order?

Subtract your item cost, Amazon’s referral fee (commission), fulfillment fee, shipping cost, packaging cost and kitting cost from your item subtotal and shipping revenue, minus any discounts. What is left is your estimated profit. This calculator does that math live in your browser as you type.

What fees does Amazon take from a sale?

A referral fee (commonly 8% to 15% depending on category) plus fulfillment fees if you use Fulfillment by Amazon, or your own shipping cost if you fulfill the order yourself. Amazon publishes the current rates at sell.amazon.com/pricing.

Why is my actual Amazon profit lower than the calculator?

Shipping cost adjustments (re-rates) that land days after the payout and return costs both cut into the estimate after the fact. On Pro and Ultimate, Rilk tracks the after-adjustments number from your real settlement data instead of estimating it.

Why does this calculator include packaging and kitting cost?

Because they’re real costs on every order that most profit calculators leave out. A $0.40 mailer, a $2 charger in the box and a minute of assembly labor look small, but on a $30 order they add up to a real share of your margin. Rilk records both on every order, so they show up in your real profit instead of disappearing into overhead.

Does this work for FBA and seller-fulfilled?

Yes. Switch the fulfillment toggle above the calculator. FBA mode shows Amazon’s FBA fee and hides Shipping Cost; Seller-fulfilled (MFN) mode shows the shipping label you buy and hides the FBA fee. Each mode keeps its own numbers, so you can flip between them without retyping anything.

Does this calculator store my data?

No. Every number you enter stays in your browser. Nothing is sent to Rilk or to anyone else.

Can I fill this from an ASIN?

Yes. Enter an ASIN and click Look up — it fills the item subtotal, referral fee percentage and (in FBA mode) the FBA fee from Amazon's own numbers, using your own connected Amazon account. It's free with a Rilk account, no card required. Nothing about the lookup is saved; the result only lives in your browser for this session.

What is the difference between estimated profit and real profit?

Estimated profit is what you can calculate at order time from the sale price and published fees. Real profit is what actually lands after fee corrections, return costs and shipping adjustments settle — often days or weeks later, and it is usually lower.

Rilk does this for every order, from real costs and settlements

This calculator estimates. Rilk computes true per-order profit from your real item cost (tracked through purchase orders) and reconciles it against what the marketplace actually paid — on Pro and Ultimate. Reports and payout reconciliation are Pro and Ultimate features, and every account gets one 14-day Pro trial.
