Profit Margin Calculator
Find gross profit, margin percentage and markup from your cost price and selling price.
Inputs
Formula
- Profit = price − cost
- Margin % = profit / price × 100
- Markup % = profit / cost × 100
Margin and markup are not the same number. Margin measures profit against the selling price — that is what an accountant reports. Markup measures it against the cost — that is what you add when you set a price. A 50% markup is only a 33% margin.
