Many shops confuse markup and margin.

Choose Markup (cost × multiplier) or Profit margin (cost ÷ (1 − margin%)). Add quantity and a setup fee for a clear quote total.

Pair with the DTF Cost Calculator for unit cost.

How it works / formula

Calculation steps

  1. Markup method: unit sell = unit cost × markup.
  2. Margin method: unit sell = unit cost ÷ (1 − margin%).
  3. Subtotal = unit sell × quantity.
  4. Quote total = subtotal + setup fee.

Worked example

Example (illustrative)

  • Cost $8.
  • 25% markup → $10.00.
  • 25% margin → $10.67.
  • Then multiply by quantity and add setup.
