📘 How This Works
- Profit = Selling Price - Cost Price
- Profit Margin (%) = (Profit ÷ Selling Price) × 100
- Markup (%) = (Profit ÷ Cost Price) × 100
- Required Selling Price = Cost Price ÷ (1 - Desired Margin ÷ 100)
💡 Tip: Use markup to price items, but always track your profit margin to understand your business health!
