What is Profit Margin Calculator?
Profit margin and markup are often confused. Profit is revenue minus cost. Profit margin expresses that profit as a percentage of the selling price (revenue), while markup expresses it as a percentage of the cost. A product that costs 60 and sells for 150 has a 60% margin but a 150% markup.
This calculator shows all three at once so you can price products, compare suppliers, and understand quotes. It runs entirely in your browser — no data leaves your device.
