Margin vs. markup — don't mix them up

Profit margin = profit ÷ revenue. Margin can never pass 100%.

Markup = profit ÷ cost. Markup can be 200%+.

Example: $60 cost sold for $100 = $40 profit — 40% margin but 66.67% markup.

How it works

  1. Pick a mode.

    "Margin & Markup" for cost+price. "Reverse" for target margin.

  2. Enter your numbers.

    Cost and price — or target margin + known value.

  3. Get the full picture.

    Profit, margin, markup — quote the right number.
