Free Spreadsheet for Tracking eBay Profits

Part of running a business is knowing your expenses, so that you can then track your profit. Do you really know how much you make per item per sale? eBay and Paypal fees are always changing, so you must take these factors into consideration when calculating your profit.

If you look at the numbers regularly, you can make educated business decisions about pricing adjustments and when it is time to stop selling an item and move on. I came across this free spreadsheet on the eBay Groups board. eBay member unclejoeadamson has it all figured out based on listing type, insertion fees, add-ons, promos, and Paypal fees. If you currently are not tracking your expenses and costs, or want to try a new system, download this spreadsheet for free and give it a try. The spreadsheet is in Excel, so it is very easy to work with.
