Formula

  • Margin is net profit divided by revenue.
  • Break-even metrics estimate the point where profit reaches zero.

  • Check the default result first.
  • Change product cost or fee rate to match your supplier and marketplace.
  • Try a higher and lower selling price.
  • Use the result to reject weak products faster.

FAQ

Why does target price rise quickly at high margins?

Because percentage fees and margin both take a share of selling price. High target margins require more price headroom.

Should ad cost be included?

Include ad cost when you want a first-order net price. Leave it at 0 for organic or wholesale pricing checks.

How do I price a product for ecommerce profit?

Start with product cost, shipping, fixed fees, ad cost, and percentage marketplace fees, then solve for the selling price that leaves your target net margin.

What is a good target net margin?

It depends on category and traffic cost. Many sellers test 15% to 30% as a planning range, then stress-test with higher ad cost, returns, and discounts.
