- | A markup calculation is a calculation that does its math from "the bottom up". This means that is takes the cost and adds the markup.

- | The 100% markup scenario is a great example because most retailers know that a 100% markup is double the price.

===== Margin Calculations ===== | ===== Margin Calculations ===== | ||
+ | A margin calculation is a calculation that does its math from “the top down”. This means that it refers to the dollar value increase as a percentage of retail. The 2 codes that use the margin calculation style are H and M. The cost used is different for each one. H uses base cost, and M uses actual costs otherwise known as the landed cost. | ||
