How the Freelance Project Profit Margin Calculator Works

Calculate project profit and profit margin from revenue and total project costs.

Total cost = labor + expenses + fees; profit = revenue − total cost; margin = profit ÷ revenue × 100.

Use the result as a planning estimate. Contracts, tax rules, platform terms and actual business costs may differ.
