Start with realistic monthly revenue (base it on recent months, not the best month ever). List your fixed costs (rent, payroll, software), then your variable costs (marketing, inventory, supplies), and subtract everything from revenue. What's left is your net profit, and net profit ÷ revenue is your margin. The calculator above does the math live as you fill in each category.
Yes. A spreadsheet business budget template makes you build and maintain the formulas yourself; here you just type the numbers and the math stays right. It works as a monthly business budget, and multiplying by twelve gives you a simple annual operating budget.
There's no universal split; benchmarks vary widely by industry. Service businesses often keep payroll (including the owner's pay) under 40% to 50% of revenue, marketing commonly runs 5% to 15%, and rent is healthiest under 10%. Treat the percentages in your budget as hypotheses, then compare them against your real numbers monthly and adjust the plan, not just the spending.
As a rough guide, a 10% net margin is solid, 20% is strong, and under 5% deserves attention. Margins differ a lot by industry (software and services run higher, retail and food run thinner), so compare against your own trend first: a margin that improves quarter over quarter beats an arbitrary benchmark.
A budget plans profitability: expected revenue minus expected expenses over a period. A cash flow forecast plans timing: when money actually enters and leaves your account, including things a budget ignores like invoices paid 30 days late, loan principal payments, and sales tax remittances. A profitable budget can still hit a cash crunch, which is why growing businesses eventually need both.
A common starting point for US business owners is 25% to 30% of net profit, adjusted for your bracket, state, and self-employment tax once you know them. If you expect to owe $1,000 or more for the year, the IRS expects quarterly estimated tax payments, so build them into the monthly plan rather than facing four surprise bills.
Monthly. A budget is a set of guesses, and the value comes from comparing the guesses to your actual numbers, then adjusting. That comparison is the part ReInvestWealth automates: your real revenue and expenses are categorized as they happen, so checking budget vs actuals takes minutes instead of an evening of spreadsheet work.
