About this calculator
What belongs in cost of goods sold?
Costs that only exist because the job exists: materials, direct labour, subcontractors, disposal, equipment hire. Office rent and salaried admin are overhead, not COGS.
Is the field crew's wage COGS or overhead?
COGS when they are on billable work. Time spent in the yard, training or idle is really overhead, which is why tracking billable hours matters so much.
The formula
gross profit = revenue − cost of goods sold
