Profit Calculation:
Profit%=(ExpectedRevenue−ActualCostsExpectedRevenue)×100Profit \% = \left( \frac{Expected Revenue - Actual Costs}{Expected Revenue} \right) \times 100Profit%=(ExpectedRevenueExpectedRevenue−ActualCosts)×100Example:
Profit%=(10,000−1,378.3510,000)×100=86.22%Profit \% = \left( \frac{10,000 - 1,378.35}{10,000} \right) \times 100 = 86.22\%Profit%=(10,00010,000−1,378.35)×100=86.22% -
Revenue Deviation Calculation:
RevenueDeviation=(∑(x−xˉ)2n)Revenue Deviation = \sqrt{\left( \frac{\sum(x-\bar{x})^2}{n} \right)}RevenueDeviation=(n∑(x−xˉ)2)Where:
- n = Total number of observations
- x̄ (Mean) = ExpectedCost+ActualCosts2\frac{Expected Cost + Actual Costs}{2}2ExpectedCost+ActualCosts
