Car Wash Profit Calculator

Formula

The formula to calculate the Car Wash Profit (P) is:

\[ P = (CW \times CPC) - LM \]

Where:

$ P $ is the Car Wash Profit per day ($)
$ CW $ is the Number of Cars Washed per Day
$ CPC $ is the Average Cost per Car Wash ($)
$ LM $ are the Labor and Material Costs per Day ($)

What is Car Wash Profit?

Car Wash Profit is the total revenue earned by a car wash per day minus the total cost to run the car wash for that day. It accounts for the number of cars washed, the price charged for each wash, and the daily operational costs, including labor and materials. This metric helps car wash owners understand their daily profitability and make informed business decisions.

Example Calculation

Let's consider an example:

Number of Cars Washed per Day (CW): 100 cars
Average Cost per Car Wash (CPC): $15 per car
Labor and Material Costs per Day (LM): $800

Using the formula to calculate the Car Wash Profit (P):

\[ P = (100 \times 15) - 800 = 1500 - 800 = 700 \, \text{\$/day} \]

This means the car wash makes a profit of $700 per day.
