How to use this calculator

Enter attributed revenue, ad spend, pre-ad contribution margin, and desired after-ad profit for the same period.

Formula and method

ROAS = attributed revenue/ad spend. Break-even ROAS = 1/pre-ad contribution margin. Profit after ads = revenue×margin − ad spend.

Worked example

Revenue 10,000, spend 2,000 and 40% margin give 5× ROAS, 2.5× break-even ROAS and 2,000 profit after ads.

Assumptions and supported scope

Assumes incremental attributed revenue and constant contribution margin. Attribution and causal incrementality are unverified. No fixed overhead or tax estimate.
