What is profit margin?

Profit margin is the share of revenue left over after covering the cost of goods sold (COGS). It is the most common measure of a business's profitability per unit of revenue.

Profit  = Revenue − Cost
Margin  = Profit ÷ Revenue × 100
Markup  = Profit ÷ Cost    × 100

Worked example

You buy a product for 100 and sell it for 150:

Profit = 150 − 100 = 50
Margin = 50 ÷ 150 × 100 = 33.33%
Markup = 50 ÷ 100 × 100 = 50.00%

Margin vs. Markup

Margin is profit as a percentage of revenue; markup is profit as a percentage of cost. A 50% markup is only a 33.33% margin — they are not the same number.
