1. Determine your product/service cost. How much did it cost you? As an example, let's assume the product cost is $1.40.2.Determine the percentage markup you wish to apply. Research your industry to apply a markup that will be competitive. In this example, we will use 30 percent.3. Convert the percentage markup to a decimal. In this case, a 30 percent markup would translate to 0.30 (30 divided by 100).4. Subtract the decimal in STEP 3 from 1. In this example, 1 minus 0.30 equals 0.70.5. Compute the total selling price by taking the cost from STEP 1 and dividing it by the result from STEP 4. In this example, $1.40 is divided by 0.70. The result is $2.00, which should be the total selling price.6. Calculate the price markup by subtracting the product cost from the selling price. In this example, the $2.00 selling price minus the $1.40 product cost gives you a price markup of $0.60.
