Markup is profit as a percentage of cost; margin is profit as a percentage of the selling price. A 50% markup equals roughly a 33% margin.
Markup vs margin — don't confuse them
A $20 cost with 50% markup prices at $30 and earns $10. That $10 is 33% of the $30 selling price, so your margin is 33%. If instead you want a 50% margin, price at $40 (cost ÷ 0.5). Feed the numbers through the mode switch to see it live.
