How this calculation works

Margin measures how much of every dollar of sales you keep; markup measures how much you added on top of your original purchase cost.

Formula
Margin % = (Profit ÷ Revenue) × 100 | Markup % = (Profit ÷ Cost) × 100

Frequently asked questions

Margin is profit divided by Selling Price (what percentage of your revenue is profit). Markup is profit divided by Cost (how much you marked up your purchase price).
