What is Markup/Margin Calculator?

The Markup/Margin Calculator converts between markup percentage and profit margin — two commonly confused pricing metrics. Enter cost and either markup or margin to see selling price, profit amount, and the equivalent percentage. Includes a comparison table for common values.

How to use

1. Enter your product cost and either the desired markup percentage or profit margin percentage.
2. The calculator instantly shows the selling price, profit per unit, and converts between markup and margin so you see both values.
3. View the reference table comparing common markup and margin values, or adjust numbers to find your ideal pricing.

Result

You buy widgets at $25 each and want a 40% markup. The calculator shows: selling price $35, profit $10/unit, and clarifies that a 40% markup equals a 28.57% profit margin — important distinction when your accountant asks about margins, not markups.
