Analysis details
Net profit $3,600.00 from $9,000.00 pre-tax revenue after $0.00 in fees.
Margin uses revenue as denominator; markup uses cost.
Fees $0.00 + $0.00 = $0.00.
Net markup
66.6667%
Sales tax collected
$0.00
Total fees
$0.00
Flow
- Choose the mode: analyze current numbers, solve required revenue, solve max cost, convert markup, or solve for target net profit.
- Set tax treatment and optional tax/fee assumptions (processing fee percent and fixed fee).
- Enter revenue and cost inputs for the selected mode, then review net margin, net markup, tax, and fee outputs.
- Use the margin-vs-markup explanation panel to validate denominator choice before sharing decisions.
Example
Worked example: margin from monthly revenue
- 1 Revenue = 9,000
- 2 Cost = 5,400
- 3 Margin = ((9,000 - 5,400) / 9,000) × 100 = 40%
Gross margin is 40%.
How
- Choose the mode: analyze current numbers, solve required revenue, solve max cost, convert markup, or solve for target net profit.
- Set tax treatment and optional tax/fee assumptions (processing fee percent and fixed fee).
- Enter revenue and cost inputs for the selected mode, then review net margin, net markup, tax, and fee outputs.
- Use the margin-vs-markup explanation panel to validate denominator choice before sharing decisions.
Avoid
- Using markup as if it were margin when communicating targets.
- Ignoring processing fees or fixed fees in channel-specific profitability checks.
- Treating tax-inclusive totals as if they were pre-tax revenue.
- Mixing costs from different periods than the revenue period.
- Entering revenue equal to zero, which makes margin undefined.
FAQ
Why does margin drop when I switch to tax-inclusive revenue?
In tax-inclusive mode, a portion of customer charge is tax to remit, so pre-tax revenue and margin base are lower.
Can this solve for a target net profit?
Yes. Target-profit mode computes the required revenue after considering tax treatment and fee assumptions.
What is a healthy gross margin?
It varies by industry, product category, and operating model.
Can margin exceed 100%?
No. Margin greater than 100% is not possible with the standard formula.
Should I include overhead in cost here?
Start with direct product or service costs. Use fee fields for per-transaction deductions; broad overhead allocation is optional and context-dependent.
