How it works
Methodology & formulas
This calculator is transparent by design. Review the steps and formulas so you can trust the estimate and adjust assumptions when your dashboard differs.
Calculation steps
- 1Sum base materials and gemstone costs for raw materials total.
- 2Add presentation packaging for product-ready cost.
- 3Include finishing labor cost for polish and final touches.
- 4Calculate labor from minutes and hourly rate.
- 5Add shipping for landed cost before fees.
- 6Solve retail price for target margin after platform percentage and fixed fees.
Formulas
- totalMaterials = base + gemstone
- packagingTotal = box + displayCard
- production = materials + packaging + finish
- labor = minutes/60 × rate
- landed = production + labor + shipping
- retail = landed/(1-margin-fee%)+feeFixed
- wholesale 25% = landed/(1-0.25-fee%)+feeFixed
Important assumptions
- totalMaterials = base materials + gemstone cost.
- packagingTotal = jewelry box + display card.
- production = totalMaterials + packagingTotal + polishingAndFinish.
- labor = laborMinutes/60 × hourlyRate.
- total landed = production + labor + shipping.
- Retail = landed / (1 - margin - fee%) + feeFixed.
- Wholesale uses 25% margin with same formula.
Worked example
Sterling silver necklace
Sterling silver necklace, $8.50 materials + $0 gem + $1.25 box + $0.35 card + $0.25 polish = $10.35 production. Labor 20min × $22/hr = $7.33. +$4.25 ship = $21.93 total. Retail at 55% margin + 10% fees: $21.93/(1−0.55−0.1)+$0.30 = $62.97. Profit $34.68 (55%). Wholesale at 25%: $29.85.
