Formula Used

The calculator uses the following formula to estimate Amazon FBA fees:

Total FBA Fees = (Unit Cost × Units) + (Storage Fee × Units × Days) + (Fulfillment Fee × Units)

Where:

  • Unit Cost = Cost per unit of your product
  • Units = Number of units you plan to sell
  • Storage Fee = Amazon's storage fee per unit per day (varies by product size)
  • Days = Number of days the product will be stored in Amazon's warehouse
  • Fulfillment Fee = Amazon's fulfillment fee per unit (varies by product size)

Referral fees are calculated separately based on Amazon's referral fee structure for your product category.

Worked Example

Let's calculate the FBA fees for a product with the following details:

  • Unit Cost: $10
  • Units: 50
  • Product Size: Medium
  • Days in Warehouse: 30

Using the formula:

Total FBA Fees = ($10 × 50) + ($0.50 × 50 × 30) + ($2.00 × 50)

= $500 + $750 + $100

= $1,350

This means the total estimated FBA fees for this product would be $1,350.

Understanding Amazon FBA Fees

Amazon FBA fees include several components:

  • Storage Fees: Charged per cubic foot per month based on product size and weight.
  • Fulfillment Fees: Vary by product size and include picking, packing, and shipping costs.
  • Referral Fees: Percentage of the selling price charged by Amazon for each sale.
  • Long-Term Storage Fees: Additional fees for products stored beyond 365 days.

These fees can vary significantly based on product characteristics and Amazon's pricing structure.

Calculating Profitability

To determine profitability, compare your total revenue to your total costs including FBA fees. The formula is:

Profit = (Selling Price × Units) - Total FBA Fees - (Unit Cost × Units)

For example, if your selling price is $25 per unit and you sell 50 units:

Profit = ($25 × 50) - $1,350 - ($10 × 50)

= $1,250 - $1,350 - $500

= -$600

This indicates a loss of $600 in this scenario. Adjust your pricing or reduce costs to improve profitability.
