    Just finding your videos in 2020 and they're still so relevant! Timeless content and exceptional teaching!
    Also, there's just something about hand drawn examples that gets the content across better than special effects 😁

    Great video, but a few clarifications are needed. First, markup is not a percentage...markup rate is a percentage. Also, those should be gross profit in the formulas. Without the word gross, one might imply it's a net profit.

    I have a question, so let say I sell a shoe to a franchisee for a wholesale price of $45 + extra 10% discount and retail cost is $95 and the client needs to sale it at a 55% minimum in their store to make a good profit...what is my margin as a company who sold him the shoe?

  • @Renatus_Eruditus

    Thanks for the great and succinct content! Question: when you calculate your costs for these formulas, are they just COGS or do they include OP Ex as well?

  • @PopaDom212
    @PopaDom212 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Markup=Margin/(1-Margin) and Margin=Markup/(1+Markup), for those interested.

    Sir, please can you explain something to me, I have my cost price and would like to add a percentage to the cost to get my retail price. If I assume that my cost is €10 and I add 40% to that my formula I think is €10 / (1-40%) = 25

    • @tgk300xx4
      @tgk300xx4 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Sotiris Soteriou No. I believe you are wrong. If you cost is £10 and you add and percentage to keep for your self ie. the profit, then that is your markup. So you know what your mark up is (40%) and you know what your cost is (10). So you would do 10 x 1.4 aka 140%. This will then give you your retail price (selling price to customer) which works out to be 14 pounds. So 14 pounds is 10 pounds with a 40% markup. So, let’s say you already New you selling price (14 pounds) and you already New your costs (10 pounds) and you wanted to work out what the markup was your would do profit which is 4 pounds (14 - 10) divided by 10 (which is got cost).
      So if we do:
      14 - 10 = 4
      4 / 10 = 0.4 or 40%.
      There is my answer.

      @Sam-81_98 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Hey mate if you want to do a 40% markup you need to multiply your cost by 1.40 ..so for a 10 Euro cost it is going to be 14 Euro. 14 Euro is your 40%markup on 10 Euro cost. However if you want to do a 40% margin the formula is cost/(1-0.4) so it will be 10/0.6= 16.6666 . Now to check again margin is Profit/sell price. Which is (16.66-10)/16.666 which works out to be 40%
      So in mark up you Multiply and to calculate margin you divide... hope this helps.

    Nice and simple thanks but i only recently came to hear about markup, so can you please say what is the use of markup in reality

    • @lucidrifter
      @lucidrifter 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      It is a pricing strategy. Sometimes your mark up is too high and people dont wana buy your stuff (ex. They find it cheaper in another store or they find the price too high considering other factors in industry). Margin is what you actually earned after paying all cost of production. Margin is percentage of your gross profit.

    • @sirpfa
      @sirpfa 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Kat Pusa thank you for your response. But in practice there must be where one must use margin and one must use markup, other wise they will end up in loss. No?

    • @yungliberty3549
      @yungliberty3549 ปีที่แล้ว

      I was confused too, so the equation is profit/cost=markup, so the $4 is the profit (the amount you sell it for minus the amount it cost to make; 9-5)

      the visual actually tells you the difference between the two. Margin tells you the percentage of what you actually earned (after paying the cost of production). Markup is basically the percentage/how much you are sellling the item than it actually cost you when buying it.
