Markup vs margin
Markup 50,0% is how much you added to the cost. Margin 33,3% is the profit share in the selling price. Same in absolute terms, but different percentages — a common confusion in business.
Markup vs Margin: The Key Difference
Markup is calculated on cost: Profit ÷ Cost × 100. With a selling price of 1,500 and a cost of 1,000, markup = 50%.
Margin is calculated on the selling price: Profit ÷ Price × 100. With the same profit of 500 and price of 1,500, margin = 33.3%.
Markup is always higher than margin for the same profit — because the divisor in markup is smaller. Use margin for business profitability analysis; use markup for pricing decisions.
