Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Margin Calculator, formulas, and expected usage.

What is the difference between margin and markup?

Margin is profit divided by selling price, while markup is profit divided by cost. They are related but not the same percentage.

How do I calculate selling price from cost and target margin?

Use selling price = cost ÷ (1 - margin). For example, a 30% margin means dividing cost by 0.70.

Can margin be negative?

Yes. If selling price is below cost, profit is negative and both margin and markup become negative.

Why does margin increase sale price quickly at high percentages?

As margin approaches 100%, the denominator in the formula becomes very small, so required selling price rises sharply.
