How to use Margin Calculator

Provide the cost and pricing inputs, and the calculator will show how markup and margin differ even when the same sale is being described.

What this calculator is for

This calculator is for pricing decisions, retail analysis, and business coursework where margin and markup are easy to confuse. It helps make the cost-to-price relationship explicit before a product is quoted or evaluated.

Tips

Markup is based on cost while margin is based on selling price, so the percentages are not interchangeable.
If overhead or shipping matters to the decision, build those into effective cost before trusting the reported margin.
