Payouts

Why is the math so complicated here? You need to be an accountant for this. I know there are examples but it's still very complicated.

Hi @raul0507p2014 

What are you confused about?

I am on Weekly Payouts so my Available funds add up until Monday each week.  I have a good feel for about what my Payout should be based on my sales after I print my labels.

If you could post a screen shot, cropping out the buyer's name, address, eBay ID, etc., showing just the math parts, I'm sure there are several people here who could try to help you understand.  

It's really not all that complicated.  

For starters, you do know, I assume, that eBay's Final Value Fee (FVF) percentage is applied to the total amount paid by your buyer, right?  That normally means the price of the item plus any sales tax paid by your buyer plus any shipping cost paid (advanced to you) by your buyer.

The math works like this: 

Your account has a balance ($A)

As buyers pay you ($B), those funds are pending

As pending funds become available to you ($C), eBay adds them to your balance

As you incur eBay obligations ($D), eBay subtracts them from your balance

When it is time for your payout, eBay sends you the money ($A + $C - $D)
