Verdict: Enter your price and costs to see how the job stacks up.

Enter the sale or quoted price excluding GST, then add the direct costs of delivering that job, product or service. Include materials or stock, labour, subcontractors and other direct costs.

Gross profit is revenue minus direct costs. Margin shows profit as a percentage of revenue; mark-up compares profit with cost. This is not net profit — overheads still need to be covered, and a healthy margin depends on your business.
