How this calculator works
Margin is profit as a share of the selling price. Markup is profit as a share of the cost. A product bought for 60 and sold for 100 has a 40 percent margin but a 66.7 percent markup. Choose which pair you know: cost and price gives margin and markup; cost and a target margin gives the price you must charge; cost and markup gives the price too.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between margin and markup?+
Margin divides profit by the selling price; markup divides profit by the cost. For the same product, markup is always the larger number.
How do I price for a target margin?+
Choose Cost and margin, enter the cost and the margin percentage. The price is cost divided by one minus the margin.
Can margin be 100 percent?+
No. A 100 percent margin would mean the cost is zero. The calculator asks for a value below 100.
