Business

The Business calculators handle the pricing and profit math that every freelancer, shop and small business needs. Tell margin from markup without the expensive confusion that underprices a whole product line, separate gross from net profit, and find the break-even point in both units and revenue so you know exactly how many sales keep you afloat.

Each calculator shows the formula and a worked example, so you can price from a target margin and verify the numbers before you commit.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between margin and markup?

Markup is profit ÷ cost; margin is profit ÷ price. A 50% markup is only a 33% margin. The Profit Margin and Markup calculators show both together so you never confuse them.

How do I price a product to hit a target margin?

Divide cost by (1 − margin): price = cost ÷ (1 − margin). For a 40% margin on a $60 item, price = 60 ÷ 0.6 = $100. Adding 40% to cost is a common, costly mistake.

What is the difference between gross and net profit?

Gross profit is revenue minus the direct cost of goods sold; net profit subtracts all other expenses (fees, shipping, overhead). The Profit Calculator shows both so you see what is left after every cost.

How do I calculate my break-even point?

Divide fixed costs by profit per unit. The Break-Even Calculator returns the result in both units and revenue, and lets you test how a price change moves the point.

Why does a small price change matter more than a cost cut?

Because each extra dollar of price flows straight to profit per unit, it lowers the break-even point faster than trimming a cost that is already small. Test it in the Break-Even Calculator.
