Free profit margin and markup calculator

Calculate profit per item, margin and markup from your cost and selling price in UGX. Understand the difference before setting a price.

Check the numbers per item.

Use whole shillings. Include costs such as delivery and packaging if you want them reflected. This calculates the amounts you enter; it does not forecast sales or your business’s net profit.

Margin and markup are different.

With a cost of UGX 20,000 and selling price of UGX 30,000, profit is UGX 10,000, margin is 33.33% and markup is 50%.

Margin = (selling price − cost) ÷ selling price × 100.

Markup = (selling price − cost) ÷ cost × 100.

Help people find your business too.

A public page with photos, a description and your contact link. UGX 10,000 once to list. Higher board placement is optional and costs extra.
