How does this calculator work?

Margin measures profit as a share of price. Markup measures profit relative to cost, so the percentages are not interchangeable.

Practical use

With a cost of 1,000 and price of 1,500, profit is 500, margin is 33.3% and markup is 50%.

Limitations

Before offering a discount, check the resulting margin rather than the discount amount alone.
