Overview

Amazon has refreshed its Revenue Calculator, adding the ability to compare fees and margins across multiple Amazon marketplaces and Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA) programs in a single view. The tool now accepts cost‑of‑goods‑sold (COGS), VAT settings, and optional prep‑service fees, turning a simple fee estimator into a full‑scale profitability model that sellers can use before launching new products or expanding internationally.

Key Points

• Cross‑marketplace and program comparison — Sellers can line up the United Kingdom, Germany, Japan, or any other supported store side by side with FBA options such as Pan‑European, Remote Fulfillment, or standard domestic fulfillment to see which combination yields the highest margin.
• New‑product feasibility preview — By entering an ASIN that is not yet in the seller’s catalog, the calculator returns projected fees and margin estimates, allowing a quick “yes‑or‑no” decision on whether to source the item.
• Prep‑service cost inclusion – Optional line‑item fees for bagging, labeling, poly‑bagging, or other preparation services can be toggled on, so the landed cost reflects the true expense of getting inventory ready for Amazon’s warehouses.
• COGS and VAT input fields — Users may input the per‑unit purchase price and specify the VAT rate applicable to the destination marketplace, producing a net profit figure that mirrors real‑world tax obligations.
• Expandable detail view — A single‑click switch expands the summary into a granular breakdown that lists referral fees, storage charges, pick‑and‑pack costs, and any prep fees for each marketplace and program.
• Historical fee reference — The updated interface retains the previous month’s fee snapshot, enabling sellers to spot trends or verify that recent fee changes have not eroded profitability.

How the Revenue Calculator Works

1. Select marketplaces and FBA programs — Choose any combination of Amazon stores (e.g., UK, DE, JP) and FBA models (Pan‑European, Remote Fulfillment, standard) from the dropdown; the tool instantly creates parallel columns for each selection.
