Cost price in, profit, margin and markup out.
Enter the cost price and selling price.
Profit = SP - CP Profit % = (SP - CP) / CP x 100
Profit percentage is conventionally taken on the cost price. Margin, by contrast, is taken on the selling price.
Buying stock at 1,200 and selling at 1,560.
The profit is 360, a 30% gain on cost, or a 23.1% margin on the selling price.
Markup is profit as a percentage of cost. Margin is profit as a percentage of the selling price, so it is always the smaller number.
For a true picture, add freight, packaging and platform fees to the cost price before calculating.
