What is the difference between margin and markup?

Margin is profit as a percentage of selling price; markup is the percentage added to cost. A 50% markup on RM100 gives a price of RM150, but a 33% margin. Mixing them up leads to pricing mistakes.

What is a good margin?

It depends on your industry and operating costs; there is no universal figure. Know your actual margin after all costs instead of guessing. This calculator shows that number.
