Profit = revenue - cost

So if you put in $1 and got back $2 that’s 100% profit. 1000% profit would mean you put in $1 and got back $11.

Wait why 11?

$1(Cost) - $11(Revenue) = $10(Profit)

$1(Cost) / $10(Profit) = 10 or 1000%

It’s $11 because you have to cover cost and then make 10x on top of that.
