How is TACoS calculated?

TACoS = ad spend ÷ total sales × 100. ACoS = ad spend ÷ ad sales × 100. Take both from the same date range.

What is a good TACoS?

There is no universal number; the one hard line is your pre-ad margin. Below it you make money after ads, above it you lose. It can be kept high on purpose during a launch.

ⓘ Rounding: money lines are rounded to the nearest cent, and the total on screen is the sum of the lines on screen. The marketplace's own rounding can differ by a cent per line; in tiered rate cards the direction of that difference is not guaranteed.

TACoS = ad spend ÷ total sales; ACoS only looks at ad sales. Take both figures for the same date range (ad console and Business Reports). Organic sales = total − ad sales; the lift ads give organic rank does not show up in this split.

The problem

ACoS alone is half the picture.

ACoS only looks at sales that came from ads. If ads also lift organic rank, the real question is ad spend against TOTAL sales — TACoS.

🔍

Organic stays hidden

The ad console does not show organic sales; total minus ad sales has to be worked out.

📅

Different periods, wrong ratio

If ad sales come out larger than total sales the tool warns you: the two numbers are from different ranges or attribution windows.

⚖️

Break-even is unknown

If TACoS exceeds your pre-ad margin you are losing money after ads; enter the margin and see the line.
