About this calculation
How is this calculated?
Profit erosion = orders × return rate% × (profit per order + reverse shipping + returned value × loss%).
What does this estimate exclude?
Includes foregone profit, reverse shipping and product loss under your assumptions. Avoid double-counting costs already included in your profit figure.
