Cleaning Gross Profit Calculator
What is left on cleaning work after the direct cost of delivering it, before overhead.
Result
Gross profit is what is left after the cost of doing the job. Overhead comes out of that: the building, the office wages, the vans, insurance, software and advertising. A healthy gross margin still loses money if overhead is larger.

About this calculator
What belongs in direct cost?
Anything that would not exist if the job did not happen: the labour on it, the materials, the disposal, the subcontractor. Office wages and insurance stay in overhead.
Is gross profit what I can spend?
No. It is what is available to pay for overhead. What is left after that is the only money the business has actually made.
The formula
gross profit = revenue - direct costs
