Margin Calculator Formula

The margin calculator formula is simple: Margin % = (Selling Price − Cost) ÷ Selling Price × 100. The result tells you how many cents of every dollar of sales you keep as profit. For example, if an item costs $60 and sells for $100, the profit is $40 and the margin is 40%. This calculator applies the same formula automatically, so you only need to enter two numbers.

How to Calculate Net Profit Margin

If you are asking how to calculate net profit margin, use this formula: Net Profit Margin % = Net Profit ÷ Revenue × 100. Net profit is your revenue minus every cost: product cost, rent, salaries, marketing, interest and taxes. Say your business earns $50,000 in revenue and spends $42,500 in total. Net profit is $7,500, so the net profit margin is 15%. This number shows how much of your sales is truly left after all expenses.

Gross Profit Margin Calculator Formula

The gross profit margin calculator formula only looks at the direct cost of what you sell: Gross Margin % = (Revenue − Cost of Goods Sold) ÷ Revenue × 100. With $80,000 in revenue and $48,000 in cost of goods sold, gross profit is $32,000 and gross margin is 40%. Gross margin ignores overhead such as rent and wages, which makes it ideal for comparing products and checking your pricing.

How to Calculate Margin and Markup

Many people mix up the two, so here is how to calculate margin and markup side by side. Markup is based on cost: Markup % = (Price − Cost) ÷ Cost × 100. Margin is based on the selling price. With a cost of $60 and a price of $100, the markup is 66.7% while the margin is 40%. Markup is always higher than margin for the same sale. A quick conversion helps: a 50% markup equals a 33.3% margin.

Calculate Selling Price from Cost and Profit Margin

To calculate selling price from cost and profit margin, use Selling Price = Cost ÷ (1 − Margin), where the margin is written as a decimal. If your cost is $60 and you want a 40% margin, the price is $60 ÷ 0.60 = $100. Do not simply add 40% to the cost, because that gives a $84 price and only a 28.6% margin. Use the calculator's price mode to avoid this common pricing mistake.

Profit = Price - Cost
Margin % = Profit / Price x 100
Markup % = Profit / Cost x 100
Price = Cost / (1 - Margin)
