Frequently asked questions

What's the difference between markup and margin?

Markup is the percentage added to cost to get selling price. Margin is profit as a percentage of selling price. A $50 item sold for $100 has 100% markup but 50% margin.

How do I convert markup to margin?

Margin = Markup ÷ (1 + Markup). For 50% markup: 0.50 ÷ 1.50 = 33.3% margin.

What markup should I use?

It depends on your industry, costs, and competition. Retail typically uses 50-100%, while luxury goods can be 200-400%. Cover all costs and ensure sustainable profit.

Should I focus on margin or markup?

Margin is more useful for financial analysis and comparing profitability across products. Markup is simpler for day-to-day pricing decisions.
