Margin % = (Price − Cost) / Price · 100; Markup % = (Price − Cost) / Cost · 100
Common questions
Margin vs markup — what's the difference?
Margin is profit as a share of the selling price. Markup is profit as a share of cost. A 50% markup is only a 33% margin.
Can margin be above 100%?
No — margin is capped at 100% (would require zero cost). Markup has no upper bound.
