Total revenue Sales and other revenue for the period.

Operation expenses Rent, payroll, utilities, marketing—your OpEx total.

Interest Interest expense for the period.

Depreciation Depreciation charged in this period.

Taxes Income and other taxes allocated to the period.

Total explicit costs Calculated after you click Calculate.

Accounting profit Calculated after you click Calculate.

Results

Total explicit costs sum operating expenses, interest, depreciation, and taxes. Accounting profit is revenue minus that sum.

Example

Revenue is $100,000, operating expenses $25,000, interest $5,000, depreciation $10,000, and taxes $12,000. Total explicit costs are $52,000. Accounting profit is $100,000 − $52,000 = $48,000.

How it works

Total explicit costs = operating expenses + interest + depreciation + taxes. Accounting profit = total revenue − total explicit costs. A negative result is an accounting loss for the period. This is a simplified view; your accountant may use different line items.
