How to calculate CPA by hand

The formula is simple; the key is defining "new customer."

Formula

CPA = ad spend / number of new customers

Two practical examples

01

Cosmetics ecommerce

You spend $2,000 in Meta Ads. The campaign brings 200 new orders (AOV $60, 40% margin).

CPA = 2,000 / 200 = $10

Profit per order $24 − $10 CPA = $14. Healthy.

02

B2B agency, lead-gen

You spend $1,500, the campaign produces 50 leads, of which 5 close.

CPA = 1,500 / 5 = $300 per client

If a client generates at least $900 of profit, CPA makes sense.
