Dropshipping Profit Formula

Net Profit = Sale Price − (Supplier Cost + Platform Fee + Ads + Shipping + Returns + Chargebacks)

ROI = (Net Profit ÷ (Supplier Cost + Ads + Shipping)) × 100

Profit Margin = (Net Profit ÷ Sale Price) × 100

Break-Even Price = Total Cost (the minimum price you must charge to avoid a loss)

Dropshipping Calculator FAQ

Successful dropshippers typically aim for a 20–40% profit margin after all costs. However, with high ad costs, margins can shrink to 10–15%. Focus on products where you can achieve at least 3x markup over supplier cost to leave room for advertising and returns.
Your break-even price equals your total cost per order: Supplier Cost + Platform Fee + Advertising + Shipping + Return Allowance + Chargebacks. This calculator automatically shows your break-even price so you can set a selling price above it.
Platform fees vary by where you sell. For Shopify dropshipping, include Shopify Payments fees (2.9% + $0.30) plus any transaction fee based on your plan. For eBay, add 12.9% + $0.30. For Etsy, add 6.5% listing + transaction fees. Enter the total dollar amount per order.
Use your Cost Per Purchase (CPP) from your ad platform (Facebook Ads Manager, Google Ads, TikTok Ads). If you spent $500 on ads and got 25 purchases, your CPP = $20 per order. Enter this value in the Ad Spend field for accurate profit calculation.
Yes, dropshipping remains profitable in 2026 — but the margin for error is smaller. Rising ad costs (especially on Meta and TikTok), longer shipping times from overseas suppliers, and increased competition mean you need to be precise about your numbers. Use this calculator before testing any product to confirm profitability at realistic ad spend levels.
