Tool details and privacy

Add the purchase, shipping, and packaging costs, then find a selling price for a margin you want or the margin of a price you already know. Commission is a percent of the selling price, and you can add a fixed fee.

Margin here is profit divided by the selling price, not by the cost. Commission is taken from the selling price before profit.

Options

  • A price from a target margin, or a margin from a known price.
  • A commission percent of the selling price, and a fixed fee taken once.

Limits

  • Amounts use two decimal places and up to 12 digits before the decimal point. Rounding is half up.
  • Selling price = (purchase + shipping + packaging + fee) / (1 − commission − margin).
  • The commission percent and the margin percent together must stay under 100%.
  • The margin shown is recalculated from the rounded price, so it can differ from the margin you entered by a few hundredths: a purchase of 12 at a 10% margin gives a price of 13.33 and a margin of 9.98%.
  • Purchase, shipping, and packaging together must be greater than zero.
  • 1,250 is rejected because it could mean one thousand two hundred and fifty or 1.25. Write 1250 or 1250.50.
  • A negative profit is shown and is not hidden. Tax is not included, and this is not an approved price list.

Questions

How do I price a product after shipping and packaging?

Enter them in the fields. A purchase of 80, shipping of 10, packaging of 5, and a 20% margin gives a price of 118.75 and a profit of 23.75.

Is the margin the same as markup on cost?

No. Margin here is profit divided by the selling price. Markup on cost is a different calculation in the profit margin calculator.

How do I enter a marketplace commission?

Enter it as a percent of the selling price. A price of 200, a cost of 100, and 10% commission means commission 20, profit 80, and margin 40%.

What if the price does not cover the cost?

The profit is shown as a negative number, with a note. The tool does not reject the number or hide it.
