Divide the margin by one hundred minus the margin, then multiply by one hundred to get the
markup percentage.
Markup divides profit by the smaller cost figure, while margin divides the same profit by the
larger selling price.
A 100 percent markup means the price is twice the cost, which is a margin of exactly 50

Use margin when you compare profitability with other businesses, and markup when you apply a
simple multiplier to cost.
It is the factor applied to cost to reach the price, so a 25 percent markup is a multiplier
of 1.25.
Negative percentages are not accepted because they describe a loss rather than a normal
margin or markup.
The percentages are fixed reference points, but the price column changes with the cost you
enter.
