From gross profit to operating profit, line by line

Short answer

Each line with its share of revenue: cost of goods, marketplace commission, shipping, advertising, payroll, other operating costs and depreciation. Commission is its own line, not “other expenses”, because for a marketplace seller it is one of the largest.

A generic chart of accounts hides the big line

Standard templates were not written for a business that pays 12% of revenue to a marketplace. Folding that into "other" makes the single most important cost invisible.

Commission, shipping and advertising each get their own line with their percentage, because that is where the margin goes.

Cash flow and balance summary beside it

Profit and cash are different questions and a profitable month can still be a tight one. Both views sit behind the same period filter.
