Formula

Discount, margin, and markup formulas

Margin is profit as a percentage of selling price. Markup is profit as a percentage of cost. Both are useful, but they are not the same number.

Discount less amount

Less amount = MRP x discount percentage / 100. Net rate = MRP - less amount.

Margin percentage

Margin % = profit / sale rate x 100. This shows how much of the selling price is profit.

Markup percentage

Markup % = profit / cost x 100. This shows how much you added on top of purchase cost.

Discount and margin calculator FAQ

What is the difference between margin and markup?

Margin compares profit with selling price. Markup compares profit with purchase cost. A 25% markup does not equal a 25% margin.

Can I include GST or sales tax?

Yes. Enter a tax percentage and the calculator adds tax after discount to show the final line total.

Does the calculator work offline?

Yes. The math runs in your browser without a server call.
