Data notes. 1 ASIN(s) have sales but no fee data in this window; left out of fee columns and totals. COGS is not set in AdLabs on 3 of 16 ASINs; their breakeven shows the pre-COGS ceiling only. 2 ASIN(s) sold fewer than 10 units; their other-fees line is excluded from the per-unit math. 1 ASIN(s) show no FBA fee against units sold (merchant-fulfilled, or the fee is not yet published).
Methodology · formulas · column semantics

Pre-ad profit per sale (PrePPS), as laid out on That Amazon Ads Podcast ep. 48: what is left of the selling price after Amazon's fees and the landed cost of the unit, before any advertising. Breakeven ACoS is that amount as a share of the price — the ACoS at which an ad-attributed sale makes exactly zero.

ASP              = total sales ÷ total units            (window, Seller Central, organic + ad)
Referral / unit  = referral fees ÷ total units          (net of refunded-referral credits)
FBA fee / unit   = FBA fulfilment fees ÷ total units    (base fee + fuel surcharge only)
Other fees / unit= other Amazon fees ÷ total units      (storage, inbound, low-inventory, reimbursements — may be negative)
Total fees       = Referral + FBA + Other               (advertising fees excluded by definition)
Pre-COGS margin  = ASP − Total fees                     (% = ÷ ASP)
COGS             = per-unit landed cost set in AdLabs
PrePPS           = ASP − Total fees − COGS
Breakeven ACoS   = PrePPS ÷ ASP
Refund rate      = refunded sales ÷ total sales         (shown, not deducted)
ACoS             = ad spend ÷ ad-attributed sales · TACoS = ad spend ÷ total sales (SP + SD)
  • The totals row is sales-weighted: each fee's window total ÷ all units (per unit) or ÷ all sales (%). Its breakeven uses only the ASINs that have COGS; the label says how many, and what share of sales they carry.
  • Low sample (< 10 units): the other-fees figures are shown struck through and left out of that ASIN's total fees, because storage and inbound charges spread over a handful of units do not describe the product. They still count in the totals row.
  • COGS missing: AdLabs has no per-unit cost for the ASIN. Breakeven shows the ceiling — Pre-COGS margin ÷ ASP — in orange (the row carries the chip). The true breakeven is lower by COGS ÷ ASP.
  • No FBA fee against units sold: merchant-fulfilled, or Amazon has not published the fee yet. The FBA columns read — and the row's totals omit it.
  • Fees unpublished: sales but zero fees of every kind in the window (Amazon's Seller Economics data lags and AdLabs backfills it). The row is listed for completeness and excluded from every fee figure and from the totals.
  • Referral is net of refund credits, so a high-refund ASIN shows a lower referral % than its category rate.
  • Money is in the profile currency; percentages are of ASP unless the header says otherwise; — is an empty value.
