FAQs

What is the difference between margin and markup?

Margin is profit as a percentage of the selling price. Markup is profit as a percentage of the cost price.

Should I include VAT in the calculation?

Run figures net of VAT for business-to-business work. If you price domestic jobs, show VAT as a separate line so the margin stays clear.

Is this tool suitable for tenders?

Use it to sanity check price structure. For tenders, use a QS prepared estimate with a BoQ plus prelims, overheads and profit, and risk allowances.
