Formula and methodology
Formula: Profit = revenue - cost; margin (%) = profit / revenue x 100; markup (%) = profit / cost x 100 when cost > 0. Markup is undefined at zero cost.
Margin asks how much of revenue remains after the entered cost, whereas markup compares that profit with the cost itself. Losses produce negative percentages rather than being clamped to zero. At zero cost the margin is 100%, but markup has no defined denominator and is reported as text.
This result follows the calculator's declared inputs, precision, validation boundaries, and model limits.
Input contract
- Revenue for the period or item — Must be positive because margin divides by revenue.; minimum 0.01; maximum 1000000000000
- Matching cost — Use cost of goods sold for gross margin, or explicitly matched total costs for a broader profit measure.; minimum 0; maximum 1000000000000
Worked example
| Input | Value |
|---|---|
| Revenue for the period or item | 1000 |
| Matching cost | 700 |
Profit margin: 30.00%; profit: 300.00; markup on cost: 42.86%.
Assumptions and limits
- Revenue is positive and costs are nonnegative, with both referring to the same item or accounting period and one consistent currency.
- The definition of cost controls the interpretation: cost of goods sold gives gross margin, not automatically net margin after all expenses and tax.
- Losses are valid, no live accounts or sector benchmark is implied, and markup at zero cost is undefined rather than infinite.
