How do we find the total profit on a sale after the fees?

There are apparently eBay fees (7.9% for a casual seller, capped at $100) and PayPal fees.


 


So, I'm just wondering if there is anywhere that we can find the total profit on a sale after all of the necessary fees are added up? PayPal's website shows a deduction but I don't think the eBay fees are accounted for there and I can't find out where it says on eBay.

Why do you want to work out the individual selling costs?



I have a very simple spreadsheet, colums include what the buyer pays, item cost to me, the postage cost and the Paypal fee. The last 3 are taken from the first to give a pre ebay fee profit



I add those up weekly then do a monthly balance and deduct the ebay fees.

Coops' links are much better than the simple spreadsheet I emailled to souly.


 


My spreadsheet doesn't allow for putting in listing fees as my listings are free.


 


Thanks Coops for the links, now in my browser favourites.

Yes, that does have more options and I've added it to favourites too. I'll still use your one because most of mine are also generally free, so the only fees are what's in the spreadsheet.
