Markup Calculator estimate
How the estimate works
Selling price equals cost multiplied by one plus markup percentage. Resulting margin divides profit by selling price.
Important limitation
Markup is not margin. A 50% markup on cost produces a 33.33% margin on revenue. Results are estimates only and are not financial, lending, legal, tax, or investment advice.
