Formulas used on this page

Profit = selling price − cost
Margin (%) = profit ÷ selling price × 100
Profit after fee = selling price × (1 − fee ÷ 100) − cost
Price for target margin = cost ÷ (1 − target margin ÷ 100)

The currency selection formats the result only. It does not perform foreign-exchange conversion or change any number you enter. Use one consistent currency for cost and selling price.

How to read the result

Illustrative example: A unit cost of 1.80 and a selling price of 3.50 produce a profit of 1.70 and a margin of about 48.57%. If a platform retains 30% of the selling price, revenue after the fee is 2.45 and profit is 0.65 before any costs that were not included.

The example explains the calculation; it is not a market price or a recommendation for any product. Replace it with your own purchase prices, yield, labor, overhead, waste, tax, and selling terms.

Frequently asked questions

Are margin and markup the same?

No. Margin compares profit with selling price; markup compares profit with cost. See the margin versus markup guide.

Are my inputs uploaded or stored?

No. This page calculates in your browser. It does not use an account, local storage, or analytics events containing the cost and price values.

Can I use this as my final selling price?

Treat it as a quick check. Before confirming a price, verify that your cost includes ingredients, packaging, labor, overhead, waste, delivery, tax, and any terms that apply to the sales channel.
