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 costs excluding Poshmark fee minus shipping charged as adjustedCost base.
- 2Calculate candidate price for under-$15 flat fee regime
- 3Calculate candidate price for 20% regime
- 4Pick candidate that satisfies its threshold and yields lower price that still meets profit, or fallback to higher if cliff makes lower impossible
- 5Calculate fee at minimum based on picked regime
- 6Round minimum to suggested .99
- 7Calculate profit and margin at suggested
Formulas
- AdjustedCosts = item + actualShip + pack + other − shippingCharged
- Price_flat = adjustedCosts + profit + $2.95 (valid if < $15)
- Price_20% = (adjustedCosts + profit) ÷ 0.8 (valid if ≥ $15)
- Suggested = ceil(minimum) − 0.01
- Profit_at_suggested = suggested + shippingCharged − fee(suggested) − (item + actualShip + pack + other)
Important assumptions
- Poshmark fee $2.95 if price < $15 else 20% of price — causes a cliff. Pricing logic checks both regimes.
- Adjusted costs = itemCost + actualShipping + packaging + otherCosts − shippingCharged — shipping charged offsets your costs.
- For price <15 regime: minimum = adjustedCosts + desiredProfit + $2.95
- For price >=15 regime: minimum = (adjustedCosts + desiredProfit) ÷ 0.8
- Valid minimum must satisfy its own regime (under 15 vs at least 15). When both satisfy, use lower price that still meets profit. When flat regime gives >=15, discard and use 20% regime.
- Suggested price rounds minimum up to nearest dollar minus $0.01 to give psychological .99 ending, minimum $0.
