How are my accounting metrics calculated?

How is my Total Revenue calculated?

Your total income is calculated on a monthly basis based on your most up-to-date accounting data.

This calculation includes both recurring and non-recurring revenue. Non-recurring revenue is made up of one-off payments that will not happen again such as tickets for an event. On the other hand, recurring revenue is money that comes in on a consistent basis such as subscriptions.

How are my Total Expenses calculated?

Your Total Expenses are the sum of your operating and non-operating expenses, meaning that COGS (Costs Of Goods Sold) are not included. It gives you a sense of your company’s spending habits and their evolution.

Total Expenses = Total Operating + Total Non-Operating Expenses

How is my Net Operating Profit calculated?

Your net operating profit is calculated on a monthly basis based on the most up-to-date data from your accounting data. It measures the company’s ability to produce profit from operations within a specified time period.

It’s calculated by revenues minus COGS and operating expenses, excluding taxes, interests, and other non-operating expenses such as depreciation. This metric is especially important for SaaS founders because it’s an indication of how much cash flow your business is generating. A negative net operating profit indicates negative cash flow, while a positive net operating profit indicates positive cash flow.

Monitoring your net operating profit can help you understand when you need to make a draw from Capchase or prepare for your next raise.
