Enter the total profit (\$) and the total revenue (\$) into the calculator to determine the Percent Profit.

## Percent Profit Formula

The following formula is used to calculate the Percent Profit.

PP = TP / TR * 100

• Where PP is the Percent Profit (%)
• TP is the total profit (\$)
• Profit = revenue – costs
• TR is the total revenue (\$)

## How to Calculate Percent Profit?

The following example problems outline how to calculate Percent Profit.

Example Problem #1:

1. First, determine the total profit (\$). In this example, the total profit (\$) is given as 1000.
2. Next, determine the total revenue (\$). For this problem, the total revenue (\$) is given as 2000.
3. Finally, calculate the Percent Profit using the equation above:

PP = TP / TR * 100

The values given above are inserted into the equation below:

PP = 1000 / 2000 * 100 = 50 (%)

Example Problem #2:

The variables needed for this problem are provided below:

total profit (\$) = 3000

total revenue (\$) = 4000

Entering these values and solving gives:

PP = 3000 / 4000 * 100 = 75 (%)
