Preguntas Frecuentes
How do you calculate gross margin?
Gross margin = (price − cost) ÷ price × 100. If a $100 item costs $60, the margin is ($40 ÷ $100) = 40%.
What’s the difference between margin and markup?
Margin is profit as a % of the selling price; markup is profit as a % of cost. A 40% margin equals a 66.7% markup — they’re never the same number.
What is a good profit margin?
It varies by industry — software margins can exceed 80%, retail often runs 20–50%, groceries far less. Compare to peers in your sector rather than a universal target.
How do I price to hit a target margin?
Price = cost ÷ (1 − target margin). To get a 40% margin on a $60 item: $60 ÷ 0.6 = $100. This calculator shows the resulting margin as you adjust price.
Why does margin matter more than markup for pricing?
Margin tells you what share of each sale you keep after cost — it maps directly to profitability. Markup can look high while the real margin is modest.
