Scenario guidance

When to use this

Use this when comparing revenue between two periods, campaigns, products, or business lines.

Example scenario

A team is comparing last quarter revenue with this quarter revenue to understand the size of the change.

Inputs that usually matter most

  • Starting revenue, because it is the baseline for the growth percentage.
  • Ending revenue, which shows the newer or comparison-period result.
  • Matching time periods, so the two revenue numbers are comparable.

Common mistake to avoid

Do not compare mismatched periods, such as one week against one month, unless you intentionally normalized the numbers first.

How to interpret the result

Use revenue change to see the dollar movement and growth percentage to compare relative movement across different-sized revenue streams.

Formula

Revenue growth = (ending revenue - starting revenue) / starting revenue x 100

Revenue change is ending revenue minus starting revenue. Growth percentage divides that change by starting revenue.

Example revenue growth

Revenue increasing from $50,000 to $65,000 is a $15,000 change and a 30% growth rate.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is growth undefined from zero starting revenue?

Growth percentage divides by starting revenue, so a starting value of zero makes the percentage undefined.

Can this show revenue decline?

Yes. If ending revenue is lower than starting revenue, the change and growth percentage will be negative.
