    Watch as I create a fully automated Selling price file in Excel that calculates selling price from cost and margin%. We learn how to calculate markup by converting provided target margin to markup using the conversion formula. You also learn how to convert markup to margin or margin to markup using an easy formula.
    We then apply the converted markup percentage to the cost and arrive at our target selling price. We then also add discount and sales commission factors in the calculation. All of the calculations are automated, so the user of the file only needs to change the input assumptions such as target margin %, discount % or sales commission %.
    By the time you have watched the video, you will be able to prepare fully automated excel files for calculation of selling price from variable input assumptions such as target margin %, discount % and commission. Do not forget to remember the markup to margin conversion formula, and margin to markup conversion formula. These formulas will help you to always be able to calculate selling prices and profit percentages whenever you need them.

    There is a simpler way to do markup based on margin percentage.
    Use =A/(1-B). A is your cost and B is the profit margin. So a completed formula would be =15/(1-15%), which makes your answer 17.65.

    I have a question. What if you’re running a produce dept in a grocery store. I want to make a chart that calculates selling price based off margin and cost. However, a case of apples is measured by each apple that comes in that caae. For example, I get a case of honeycrisp apples for $97 and there’s 72 in there. I would like to know how to calculate the selling price at the margin I want. My costs change every week. I would like to just be able to go through and change the cost price every week so I can audit my price at the correct margin. So can you create a video on this?

    • @LearnAccountingFinance
      @LearnAccountingFinance  ปีที่แล้ว

      @couragemutobaya8706 if I understand correctly, the video already shows how to do that. You can change the cost in the calculation, and set the target margin %, and it should do the calculation for you. May be I am not understanding the question correctly. Can you give an example of the situation you are facing? Thanks

    • @LearnAccountingFinance

      No problem in doing that. If you know exactly the profit you want to add to the cost, then you don't need all the calculation.

      Preparing for interview really depends on the job description and the organization. However, I would recommend you review all the videos (specially related to income statement analysis and working capital management) in the FP&A checklist here: th-cam.com/play/PLcRqJFBzcNZWuJmu96M_SFbUIHAJ2aLZu.html.
      In addition, learn a little about financial ratios, what they mean and how are they calculated? You should also learn a little about Capex or investment analysis (NPV, payback, IRR etc). Highlight your strengths and stay positive. If they selected you for interview, they probably liked what they saw on your resume. Make sure you can give examples of experience mentioned on resume. All the best!

    Why it doesn't work if the margin is over than 100%, for example for margin 150%, can you help to calculate the Target MarkUp? The result will be in negative number, thanks

    • @LearnAccountingFinance
      @LearnAccountingFinance  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Good question. Margin is Profit divided by selling price. It can only be above 100% if profit is more than selling price. Profit can only be more than selling price if costs are negative (which is not usually the case). However, if you input negative costs, the calculation will still work. Generally speaking, the profit margin is never 100% or more, unless you are dealing with a special case? Please share.
      On the same note, exactly 100% margin would mean the cost is zero. In that case the calculation will give a Division by zero error, but if the costs are zero, and there is only money received for sale, then no calculation is really required, because its not profit, its just free money received.

  • @deepakdroid
    @deepakdroid 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    But what if the Profit Margin is 100% then the markup will become infinite (cost/(1-Profilt%)) = cost/(1-100%) = cost/(1-1) = cost/0

    • @LearnAccountingFinance
      @LearnAccountingFinance  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      hahaha! .. thats an interesting question.
      But the math still works. The Profit margin will never be 100% unless the cost is zero. Give it a try. No matter how low the cost is and how high the selling price, the profit margin will be less than 100%. It can be 99.999....% but not 100%. This is because 100% profit margin means selling price = Profit.
      If the cost is zero, then you are not calculating profit at all because profit is Selling price minus cost, and in this case you have no cost. hence no conversion from margin to markup required. By the way, the formula is Markup % = Margin % / (1 - Margin %).

      @@LearnAccountingFinance I'm working on an app in which the user can enter the cost and the profit margin and then I have to calculate the Price and the issue is if the user writes 100% Profit Margin then the calculation gives me the infinite result.

      I'm using the formula price = cost / (1 - ProfitMargin%)

      Its up to you. You can add an error message when a user enters 100% saying margin % should be a number less than 100%.

    If $15 is our cost and we are looking to make 15% profit, we can consider that $15 is 85% of the targeted price. So we divide $15/85, to find 1% of the targeted price, then we multiply it by 100%. There you have it. Simple
