Reverse Calculating Net Profit

Reverse Net Profit Calculator

Truly one of the most unique and powerful features of eBCalc is its ability to calculate Net Profit in reverse, or what I like to call a Reverse Net Profit Calculator. Using a Reverse Net Profit Calculator you can actually calculate your Net Profit in reverse. Instead of the calculator telling you what your Net Profit is (as a normal or "forward" Net Profit calculator would), with a Reverse Net Profit Calculator you get to tell the calculator what you want your Net Profit to be, and then it will tell you exactly what you would have to charge for Shiping & Handling to receive that exact amount. First, you enter in the amount of Net Profit you wish to receive (that is, what you would like to have left over after all fees, charges, shipping costs, etc. have been deducted) in the field labeled Desired Net Profit and then you simply press the Calculate button and it will instantly display to you what amount of S&H you would need to charge to receive that exact amount of Net Profit. This is displayed in the field labeled S&H To Charge. To accurately calculate the correct amount of Shipping & Handling to charge remember to fill in the fields labeled Actual S&H, Cost To Acquire, and Buy It Now Price.

Note: This feature currently only works with Buy It Now style auctions.
