Markup & Margin Calculator

What It Does

Markup & Margin Calculator is a fast, free web-based pricing tool that helps businesses and entrepreneurs calculate selling prices, gross profit, markup percentages, and profit margins from any two known values. Enter cost and desired margin, or selling price and markup—the calculator instantly computes all remaining pricing metrics and provides a complete pricing summary you can copy, print, or save as PDF.

Who It's For

This tool serves small business owners, e-commerce sellers, retailers, wholesalers, freelancers, and anyone who needs to set prices, analyze profit margins, or convert between markup and margin calculations. Whether you're pricing a new product line, checking competitiveness, or validating vendor quotes, the calculator handles the math instantly.
