ROAS & Break-Even Calculator

Turn campaign spend and attributed revenue into a clear ROAS multiple. Include contribution margin and other campaign costs to see why revenue return and profit are different, with formulas you can inspect.

Campaign economics
Use one currency and the same reporting period for every amount. These are illustrative calculations, not a bid recommendation.

Margin should already subtract variable product, fulfillment, fee and refund costs; do not count them again as other campaign costs. Attributed revenue is not proof that ads caused every sale. Google Ads ROAS definition.

ROAS = attributed revenue ÷ advertising spend. Break-even revenue = (advertising spend + other campaign costs) ÷ margin fraction. Zero margin has no finite break-even revenue. Contribution is not net profit; unentered overhead, taxes and other costs are excluded.
