Markup to Selling Price
Set a selling price from positive unit cost and a markup percentage. Also see the equivalent margin to avoid confusing the two measures.
How to use Markup to Selling Price
- Enter “Unit cost (> 0)”, using the units and limits shown in its label.
- Enter “Markup on cost (%)”, using the units and limits shown in its label.
- Select Calculate or Process. Review the result and any validation message before copying or downloading available output. Reset clears the result and restores the starting inputs.
Method & assumptions
Selling price = cost×(1+markup/100); margin = (price−cost)/price×100%.
Worked example
A 25% markup on cost 100 gives selling price 125 and margin 20%.
