Por qué importa

  • Stop double-counting

    A 25% markup is not a 25% margin. Know the real margin before you commit.

  • Pricing discipline

    Tie menu and shelf prices to cost with a consistent rule.

  • Prepares for thin-margin checks

    Once you know margin percent, you can flag lines that are too tight.

Respuestas rápidas

What is the difference between markup and margin?

Markup is on cost; margin is on selling price. The same markup percent yields a lower margin percent.

Which should I use for pricing?

Many operators think in markup but should track margin. This tool bridges both.

What happens when cost rises?

Fixed markup percent gives you a higher dollar margin but a lower margin percent — rerun after each cost change.
