Ecommerce profit per order measures how much money remains after direct order costs.
The formula is:
Profit per order = selling price - product cost - shipping cost - fees - ad cost
For example, if a product sells for $64 and total costs are $43.30, profit per order is $20.70 and net margin is 32.34%.
