Side-Hustle Profit Calculator

See what your side hustle is really paying after expenses and time. Enter one consistent period, then compare revenue with the profit you actually keep.

Use the same period for every number. If you choose “Month,” enter that month’s revenue, expenses, and hours. The results are before income and self-employment taxes.
01

Enter your numbers

Use actual numbers when you have them; estimates are useful for testing scenarios.

Time worked Include admin, travel, setup, and delivery time

Expenses for this period

Enter only costs tied to this side hustle and this same period.

This calculator does not estimate income tax, self-employment tax, deductions, or tax savings.

Your real earnings will appear here.

Enter revenue, expenses, and hours worked to see the difference between money earned and money kept.

How to read the result

Net profit is revenue minus the expenses you entered. Effective hourly earnings divide that profit by all hours worked. These figures are planning estimates, not accounting or tax advice, and they do not include income or self-employment taxes.

Your numbers stay on your device. The calculator stores your entries in this browser so you can return and adjust them later. Nothing is submitted to the WordPress database.
