Frequently asked questions
What is profit margin?
Profit margin measures profit as a percentage of selling price or revenue.
What is markup?
Markup measures profit as a percentage of cost. Margin and markup therefore have different denominators.
Can the calculator show a loss?
Yes. If selling price is below cost, profit and both percentages are shown as negative values.
