Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between markup and margin?▼
Markup is measured over cost, while margin is measured over selling price. They are related, but the same percentage does not produce the same selling price.
Why can realized margin differ from target margin?▼
Target margin is based on the nominal selling price. Realized margin can be lower because discounts, commissions, payment fees, and freight-out reduce the revenue and profit actually kept per garment.
What is net revenue per garment?▼
Net revenue per garment is the amount remaining after applying commercial deductions such as discount, commission, and payment fees to the selling price.
Should freight-out be included in pricing?▼
Yes, if outbound freight or delivery cost is paid by the seller. It is usually allocated per garment and deducted when calculating profit per garment.
How should I use the calculated selling price?▼
The calculated selling price can be used as a planning reference. Final prices should be validated with market conditions, customer expectations, taxes, commercial terms, and internal margin targets.
