Enter the average price of a pizza ($), the average cost of a pizza ($), and the total number of pizzas sold into the calculator to determine the Pizza Profit. 

Pizza Profit Formula

The following formula is used to calculate the Pizza Profit. 

PP = (AP-AC)  * QP
  • Where PP is the Pizza Profit ($)
  • AP is the average price of a pizza ($) 
  • AC is the average cost of a pizza ($) 
  • QP is the total number of pizzas sold 

To calculate the pizza profit, subtract the average cost of the pizza from the average price, then multiply by the number of pizzas sold.

How to Calculate Pizza Profit?

The following example problems outline how to calculate Pizza Profit.

Example Problem #1

  1. First, determine the average price of a pizza ($). In this example, the average price of a pizza ($) is given as 20 .
  2. Next, determine the average cost of a pizza ($). For this problem, the average cost of a pizza ($) is given as  10 .
  3. Next, determine the total number of pizzas sold. In this case, the total number of pizzas sold is found to be 100.
  4. Finally, calculate the Pizza Profit using the formula above: 

PP = (AP-AC)  * QP

Inserting the values from above yields: 

PP = (20-10)  * 100 = 1,000.00 ($)


Example Problem #2

The variables needed for this problem are provided below:

average price of a pizza ($) = 15

average cost of a pizza ($) = 12

total number of pizzas sold = 300

Entering these values and solving gives:

PP = (15-12)  * 300 = 900 ($)
