How this calculator works

How to use this calculator

Enter your cost and desired markup percentage. The calculator estimates the selling price, profit amount, and profit margin.

Formula used

Profit = Cost × Markup %. Selling Price = Cost + Profit. Profit Margin = Profit ÷ Selling Price × 100.

Example calculation

If cost is $50 and markup is 30%, profit is $15 and selling price is $65. The profit margin is 23.08%.

What the result means

Markup tells you how much you add on top of cost. The selling price is the amount you would charge based on that markup.
