      Tip
      title Margin vs Markup - What's the Difference?
      Margin - the value of sales less the cost of goods. Example: If you bought goods for $70 and then onsold them for $100, you'd make 30% margin. Markup - the amount added to the cost price in order to arrive at the sale price. Example: If you bought goods for $70 and then marked them up by 30%, you'd sell them for $91. If you wanted to sell the goods for $100, you'd need a 42.9% markup.
