About MarkupCalculation.com
A free, no-friction pricing tool built for business owners, buyers, and anyone who needs to price a product correctly.
Why this site exists
MarkupCalculation.com was built by Fabio Mencent, a web developer and online tool builder. While pricing products for his own software projects, he found that every existing markup calculator was either cluttered with ads, buried inside a larger finance platform, or missing the basic explanations that make the result actually useful. So he built a clean alternative — first for his own use, then published it for everyone.
The same approach informed his other tools: TheReword.com and MorseTranslator.net. Each one started as a personal solution to a specific problem.
What the site covers
MarkupCalculation.com is focused entirely on markup and pricing. The site includes:
- A markup calculator that finds selling price, markup percentage, or cost from any two known values
- A profit margin calculator for working backwards from a target margin to a required selling price
- A detailed guide on markup vs. profit margin, including conversion formulas and worked examples
- An industry benchmark guide covering typical markup ranges across 25+ sectors
All content is reviewed for mathematical accuracy against standard accounting and pricing references, including Simon & Fassnacht's Price Management and Scarborough & Cornwall's Essentials of Entrepreneurship and Small Business Management.
Who it is for
The tools and guides on this site are used by small business owners setting product prices, retail buyers benchmarking their markup against industry norms, freelancers and consultants calculating service rates, and students learning the difference between markup and margin for the first time. No account is required and everything is free to use.
