Target Profit Calculator: Find the Price You Need to Hit Your Profit Goal

Calculate the selling price or volume needed to achieve any target profit with this free online tool.

What Is a Target Profit Calculator?

A target profit calculator works backwards from a desired profit amount. Instead of setting a price and seeing what profit results, you set the profit you want and the calculator tells you what price to charge or how many units to sell.

This is goal-based pricing: you start with your financial target and engineer your price around it.

How to Use the Target Profit Calculator

Enter your fixed costs, variable cost per unit, and your desired profit amount. The calculator finds the selling price required to achieve that profit at a given quantity, or the quantity needed at a given price.

For example, if fixed costs are 50,000 rupees, variable cost is 200 per unit, and you want 30,000 rupees profit at 400 units, the required selling price is 325 rupees per unit.

Why Set a Profit Target First?

Working backwards from a profit target keeps you focused on what matters: earning enough to grow the business. Many businesses price reactively based on competitor prices without knowing whether those prices actually deliver the profit they need.

Setting a profit target first forces you to check whether your market pricing is financially viable.

Target Profit vs Break-Even

Break-even is the point of zero profit. Target profit goes beyond break-even to include the desired profit amount. The target profit calculation adds your profit goal to fixed costs and divides by the contribution margin.

Use the break-even calculator on Tez Invoice to find the zero-profit baseline, then use this target profit calculator to plan for growth.

Target Profit for Freelancers and Service Providers

Freelancers can set a monthly income target and use this calculator to find the hourly or project rate needed to reach that income. Enter your monthly overhead (subscriptions, equipment, insurance) plus desired take-home pay, and calculate the rate needed based on available billable hours.

This makes rate-setting objective rather than emotional.
