How to Use the Calculator

  1. Enter the Product Cost of your item in the first input field.
  2. Enter your Desired Profit Margin as a percentage in the second input field (e.g., enter 20 for 20%).
  3. Click the Calculate button to see the calculated List Price and Profit Amount.
  4. Use the Reset button to clear all inputs and start over.

Working Principle

The calculator uses the formula:

List Price = Cost / (1 - Profit Margin)

This means if you want to achieve a 20% profit margin on a product that costs $50, the list price would be:

List Price = $50 / (1 - 0.20) = $50 / 0.80 = $62.50

The profit amount would be $62.50 - $50 = $12.50, which is 20% of the list price.
