# Parts markup calculator

Enter a part cost and choose markup or target margin. See the selling price, gross profit, markup, and margin without mixing up the two percentages.

## Use this resource

1.  Use the current net cost paid by your shop.
2.  Choose whether your pricing rule uses markup or target margin.
3.  Review the result against your overhead, market, and full repair order.

## Before you use it

This calculator only applies the numbers you enter. It does not recommend a price, account for tax, or measure net profit.

## Research behind the fields

The field set follows practical guidance from the [Federal Trade Commission](https://consumer.ftc.gov/articles/0211-auto-repair-basics) and the [California Bureau of Automotive Repair](https://www.bar.ca.gov/wir). These sources help identify useful records. They do not make this resource compliant in every location.

## Keep the full repair together.
