💡 How It Works

  • Margin is the ratio of profit to selling price. It shows 'what percentage of the selling price is profit.'
  • Markup is the ratio of profit to cost. It shows 'what percentage was added to the cost.'
  • For the same transaction, margin and markup are different. E.g., 25% margin = 33.3% markup
  • Margin reverse: Selling Price = Cost / (1 - Margin/100)
  • Markup reverse: Selling Price = Cost × (1 + Markup/100)
  • Retail typically uses margin; manufacturing often uses markup.
