What price do you need if your cost goes up?

Quick lesson1 min read

When a supplier raises prices, keeping the same money per sale and keeping the same margin percentage are different goals. Decide which one you want to keep before changing your prices.

An example with numbers

You sell something at $100 that costs $60. Your margin is 40%. If the cost rises to $66, selling at $106 keeps the original $40, but the margin falls to 37.7%. To keep 40%, the price would have to be $110.

Try it with your numbers

Enter the new cost and your target margin. Then compare the resulting price with what your customers would accept.
