Profit (P)  = Revenue (R) − Cost (C)
Margin %    = (P ÷ R) × 100
Markup %    = (P ÷ C) × 100

Given:
• Cost & Margin %      → R = C ÷ (1 − g),  P = R − C
• Cost & Markup %      → P = C × m,        R = C + P
• Revenue & Margin %   → C = R × (1 − g),  P = R − C
• Revenue & Markup %   → C = R ÷ (1 + m),  P = R − C
• Cost & Revenue       → P = R − C
• Revenue & Profit     → C = R − P
• Cost & Profit        → R = C + P

(Where g = margin/100, m = markup/100)

Sales Calculator

Price confidently with a fast, no-nonsense sales calculator. Enter any two values—such as cost and margin %, or revenue and markup %—and instantly get the rest: profit, revenue, cost, margin %, and markup %. It’s designed for real-world quoting and pricing, so you can move from request to response in seconds.

What this calculator does

• Solves five key sales variables: Cost (C), Revenue/Price (R), Profit (P), Margin %, Markup %.
• Works from any two inputs: Cost + Margin %, Cost + Markup %, Cost + Revenue, Revenue + Margin %, Revenue + Markup %, Revenue + Profit, or Cost + Profit.
• Outputs clean, copy-ready results that are easy to paste into an email, chat, or quote.

How to use it

1. Pick the pair you know (e.g., Cost & Margin %).
2. Enter your numbers and click Calculate.
3. Copy or select the answer block to share with a customer or teammate.

Core formulas (for reference)

• Profit: P = R − C
• Margin %: (P ÷ R) × 100
• Markup %: (P ÷ C) × 100

From those, the calculator rearranges automatically. Examples:

• Given Cost & Margin % (g as decimal):
  • R = C ÷ (1 − g), P = R − C
• Given Revenue & Markup % (m as decimal):
  • C = R ÷ (1 + m), P = R − C

Quick example

You sell a product that costs $14.72 and you want 30% margin.

• Revenue: R = 14.72 ÷ (1 − 0.30) = $21.03
• Profit: P = 21.03 − 14.72 = $6.31
• Markup %: 6.31 ÷ 14.72 = 42.86%

With two inputs, you immediately see the full picture—no spreadsheets required.

When to use margin vs. markup

• Margin % expresses profit as a share of the selling price; it’s how finance views profitability.
• Markup % expresses profit as a share of cost; it’s common in day-to-day quoting.Use whichever is standard for your team—this tool converts between them automatically.

Tips for better pricing

• Sanity-check outliers. Very high markup on low-cost items can create sticker shock; test a few scenarios.
• Round smartly. After you calculate, round to customer-friendly prices that still meet targets.
• Include add-ons. Don’t forget setup, freight, or finishing charges if they affect perceived price.
• Document assumptions. Save the output with notes so future you knows how you arrived at the number.

FAQ

What’s the difference between profit and margin?

Profit is the dollar amount (R − C). Margin % is that profit as a fraction of revenue.

Why does my margin look smaller than my markup?

They’re based on different denominators (revenue vs. cost). For the same sale, markup % will always be larger than margin %.
