Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is the difference between Margin and Markup?

Markup is the percentage profit added to the Cost Price. Margin is the percentage profit calculated on the Selling Price. For example, a ₹50 profit on a ₹100 cost represents a 50% Markup, but a 33.3% Profit Margin on the ₹150 selling price.

Which metric is more important for cash flow?

Profit margin is generally more important as it directly reflects how much of every rupee of sales is retained as profit.

How do I calculate selling price for a 20% margin?

The formula is: Selling Price = Cost Price / (1 - Margin). For a ₹100 cost, Selling Price = 100 / 0.80 = ₹125.
