Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between margin and markup?
Margin is profit as percentage of selling price: (Revenue-Cost)/Revenue×100. Markup is profit as percentage of cost: (Revenue-Cost)/Cost×100. Same profit amount, different base for calculation. Margin is always lower than markup for same transaction.
What is a good profit margin for different businesses?
Profit margins vary by industry: Grocery retail 1-3%, Electronics retail 2-5%, Restaurants 3-9%, Software 15-25%, Consulting 20-40%. Manufacturing typically 10-20%, Wholesale 5-15%. Compare with industry benchmarks, not absolute numbers.
How is trading margin calculated in stock market?
Trading margin = Contract value × Margin percentage. Equity delivery: 20-100%, Intraday: 10-20%, Futures: 10-15%, Options: 15-20%. SPAN margin covers potential losses, exposure margin provides additional buffer. Leverage = 1/Margin percentage.
How do I calculate selling price from cost and desired margin?
Selling Price = Cost ÷ (1 - Margin%). For 40% margin on ₹100 cost: ₹100 ÷ (1-0.40) = ₹166.67. Alternatively, use markup: Selling Price = Cost × (1 + Markup%). For 50% markup: ₹100 × 1.50 = ₹150.
What factors affect trading margin requirements?
Factors include: Stock volatility (higher volatility = higher margin), Market conditions, Regulatory changes, Broker policies, Position size, Time to expiry (for derivatives). VaR and SPAN margins are dynamically calculated based on risk parameters.
