Markup vs Margin & Pricing Calculator

Markup and margin aren't the same number. Price from a target margin, a target markup, or a fixed price — and see all three plus tax-inclusive pricing.

Margin = profit ÷ selling price.

Selling price (ex tax)

£96.00 including 20% tax

Profit per unit

£40.00

Markup

A 100% markup is only a 50% margin — always confirm which one a supplier or spreadsheet means.

How it works

Enter cost and selling price to see margin, markup and profit. Or work backwards: enter a target margin and the tool sets the selling price for you. The two are often confused — margin is profit as a share of price, markup is profit as a share of cost.
