How this calculation works
Margin divides profit by revenue. Markup divides profit by cost, so the two percentages are different. Include the relevant costs for the kind of margin you want to measure.
Profit margin = (revenue − costs) ÷ revenue × 100
Your calculation, step by step
- Profit = 10,000 − 6,500 = 3,500.
- Margin = 3,500 ÷ 10,000 × 100.
A worked example
10,000 revenue and 6,500 costs produce a 35% margin.
