Discount Impact on Margin Calculator

Discount Impact on Margin: a planned Super Calculator tool. Covers list price (currency). Stub page while the tool and its worked example are prepared.

Discount Impact on Margin Calculator is a planned calculator in the business section of Super Calculator, covering pricing strategy.

What this calculator will compute

Inputs: list price (currency), unit cost (currency), discount (%) and current volume (units).

Outputs: new margin (%), margin lost (currency) and volume uplift required to break even (%).

Formula, recorded as scope and not yet verified against a primary source: New margin % = (price * (1 - d) - cost) / (price * (1 - d)). Break-even volume uplift required = current margin / (current margin - d expressed on price), which shows why a 20% discount on a 30% margin requires roughly a doubling of volume.
