Margin calculator

Estimate what remains from each sale after costs, shipping and fees.

Use the same currency for all amounts. Results use that currency.

Units to cover fixed costs

Excludes taxes and costs you have not entered. A positive margin does not guarantee demand or profit.

How to interpret the result

What does the calculator deduct?

Product cost, shipping and percentage fees are deducted from the price. Multiply that contribution by units sold, then subtract fixed costs to get the period result.

Are margin and markup the same?

No. Here, margin is contribution divided by selling price. Markup is calculated on cost.

Does it work for dropshipping?

Yes, if you include your real costs. Include advertising, returns and tools under the relevant costs. Evaluate suppliers, timelines and terms separately.
