• The gross profit P is the difference between the cost to make a product C and the selling price or revenue R.
  • P = R - C
• To calculate revenue R based on the cost C and the desired gross margin G, where G is in decimal form:
  • R = C / ( 1 - G)
• The gross profit dollars P is the revenue dollars R from the sale times the gross margin G percentage, where G is in decimal form :
  • P = R * G
• The mark up percentage M, in decimal form, is gross profit P divided by cost C.
  • M = P/ C
  • M * 100 will change the decimal to a percentage.
