How to Calculate Profit Margin in Stripe
Making the most of your Stripe data
What is Profit Margin?
Profit margin is the ratio of net income to revenue. It is calculated by dividing net income by revenue.
For example, if your company earns $100,000 in revenue and has $50,000 in net income, your profit margin is 50%.
Profit margin is a very important metric because it tells you how much money your company is making on each dollar of revenue. Profit margin is also a very important metric for investors, because it shows how much money your company is making on each dollar of investment.
For example, if your company has a profit margin of 50%, and you have $1 million in revenue, your company is making $500,000 in profit. If you have $10 million in revenue, your company is making $5 million in profit.
