Calculate an annual run rate (ARR)

Monthly Revenue * 12 Months = Annual Run Rate

Quarterly Revenue * 4 Quarters = Annual Run Rate

If a business produces $20,000 in sales during its first month, you could multiply that number by 12 to get an ARR of $240,000. However, if that same business followed that up with $18,000 in sales their second month and $15,000 in their third month for a total of $53,000 in first-quarter earnings, so what is their ARR now?

Their ARR now is:

= ($20,000 + $18,000 + $15,000) x 4

= $53,000 x 4

= $212,000
