25 % markup calculator
To add a 25 % markup, multiply the cost by 1.25. A product that costs 100 sells for 125.00. A 25 % markup equals a profit margin of 20 % of the selling price.
25 % markup price table
| Cost | Selling price | Profit |
|---|---|---|
| 10.00 | 12.50 | 2.50 |
| 25.00 | 31.25 | 6.25 |
| 50.00 | 62.50 | 12.50 |
| 100.00 | 125.00 | 25.00 |
| 250.00 | 312.50 | 62.50 |
| 1,000.00 | 1,250.00 | 250.00 |
Formula
Selling price = cost × (1 + 25 ÷ 100) = cost × 1.25. Profit = cost × 25 ÷ 100. For example, a cost of 80 becomes a price of 100.00. The table shows common costs; amounts work in any currency.
Markup is not margin
Markup is measured on the cost, margin on the selling price. That is why a 25 % markup gives only a 20 % margin: margin = markup ÷ (100 + markup) × 100. If your target is a margin, use the profit margin calculator instead to avoid underpricing.
Working backwards from the price
If you know the selling price and the markup, divide the price by 1.25 to get the cost. A price of 100 with a 25 % markup means the item cost 80.00.
