Margin Calculator

This is a crucial distinction. Gross Margin is your profit relative to your revenue (selling price). The formula is (Profit / Revenue) * 100. Markup is your profit relative to your cost. The formula is (Profit / Cost) * 100. Margin shows what percentage of your price is profit, while markup shows how much you've increased the price from its cost. Our calculator shows both for a complete financial picture.

This mode helps you with your pricing strategy. Instead of entering a selling price, you enter your "Desired Margin" as a percentage. The calculator will then compute the exact selling price you need to charge to achieve that margin, after accounting for all your specified costs (including the percentage-based transaction fee).

Answer: For the most accurate result, include all variable costs associated with a single sale. - Cost of Goods: The direct cost of the product from your supplier. - Shipping Cost: The cost you pay to ship the item to the customer. - Transaction Fee: The percentage your payment processor (like Stripe or PayPal) takes from the sale. - Marketing Cost: Your average Cost Per Acquisition (CPA) or the specific ad spend used to get that one sale.

Gross Profit is a dollar amount ($), while Gross Margin is a percentage (%). Gross Profit is the simple difference between your selling price and your total costs (e.g., "$20 profit"). Gross Margin tells you how efficient your business is by showing what percentage of your total revenue was profit (e.g., "40% margin").

Yes. While it's designed with e-commerce in mind, the principles of margin calculation are universal. It can be used for digital products, handmade goods, or services. Simply fill in the cost fields that are relevant to your business. For a digital product, for example, your "Cost of Goods" and "Shipping Cost" might be $0, but you would still have marketing and transaction fees.
