All Calculators/Profit Margin Calculator

Profit Margin Calculator

Determine what to charge based on your target profit margin percentage.

The profit margin calculator takes your job cost and target margin percentage and returns the sale price, dollar profit, and equivalent markup. Margin and markup are different numbers — this tool keeps both in view so you price correctly. Use it to double-check every quote before sending.
  • A 20% margin requires a 25% markup — confusing the two causes systematic under-pricing.
  • Net margin after overhead and taxes for residential contractors averages 8–12% — set your targets accordingly.
  • Price by margin, not markup, when you're quoting against competitors who do the same — it's the cleaner comparison.
