About
A Profit and Loss (P&L) statement, or Income Statement, is the roadmap of a company's financial performance over a specific period. It tracks how revenue is transformed into net profit. This calculator allows small business owners and freelancers to model their bottom line by inputting Revenue, Cost of Goods Sold (COGS), and dynamic Operating Expenses.
The tool calculates key profitability metrics automatically: Gross Profit (Efficiency of production), EBIT (Earnings Before Interest and Taxes), and Net Income (The actual profit after all costs). Understanding these margins is essential for pricing strategies and expense management.
