- Calculating your expected revenue provides a starting point of how much money will come into your business to cover all your costs both ongoing and operating.
- It can help you figure out how much profit you could make in a year, which is how much you could be taxed on at the end of the year. Simply subtract your production and other costs from your revenue to determine your profit.
