M  =  GP ( Rev - COGS ) / Rev

 

 

 

M.k  =   (GS.REV  -  CoS)  /  CoS

Margin refers to the difference between Gross Sales Revenues and Cost of Sales Divided by Gross Sales Revenue expressed normally in percentage.

 

Margin = (Gross Sales Revenue - Cost of Sales) / Gross Sales Revenue x100

 

Whereas Mark-up is arrived at by dividing differenc of Gross Sales and Cost of Sales by Cost of Sales, expressed normally percentage

 

Mark-up = (Gross Sales Revenues - Cost of Sales) / Cost of Sales x100

Marginis sales minus the cost of goods sold.

 

Markup is the amount by which the cost of a product is increased in order to derive the selling price.

 

Margin= Gross profit (Revenue – Cost of goods sold) / Revenue

 

Markup= (Gross Sales Revenues - Cost of Sales) / Cost of Sales

In Amount terms, margin and Markup are the same. However these are measured as a percentage.

 

Take the following Example.

 

Say cost is $4 and Profit is $1

 

Markup would be1/4 or25%.

However Margin is1/(4+1)=1/5 or20%.

 

In my experience Margin is more useful for sales reports while Markup is used by accounting professionals.
