Price with purpose.
Understand your profit.
Build a price for one product, job or service. Include your time and fees, then see what remains after the costs you enter.
Calculate your priceFree · No sign-in required01 / One item or job
Build your cost base.
Use the same basis for every amount: one item, one project or one billable service. Allocate overheads to that same unit.
02 / Your pricing picture
Know what remains.
Enter your direct costs to begin.
Complete every field with a non-negative number. Target margin plus percentage fees must be below 100%.
Margin ≠ markup
They use different denominators.
With costs of 100 and no fees, a 25% markup gives a price of 125 and a 20% margin. To earn a 25% margin, the price is 133.33 before rounding. Profit margin divides profit by selling price; markup divides the uplift by costs.
How we calculate
Price = (direct costs + labour hours × hourly cost + overheads + fixed fee) ÷ (1 − margin% ÷ 100 − fee% ÷ 100).
Use costs excluding recoverable sales tax. Include non-recoverable tax in costs. This tool does not add VAT/GST/sales tax or calculate income tax. Check your local rules and full costs before quoting. Fees are assumed to apply to the pre-sales-tax price; adjust for your provider’s actual fee basis.
