Product costs and margins

What you can do

• The “Costs” tab of the product page adds up the unit cost: materials, taken from the recipe (or, for a product bought as is, the purchase price entered), plus packaging, labour, inbound shipping and other variable costs.
• A product is declared as bought as is with the “This product is purchased as is” box, in the “Stock” tab of its page.
• The margin is always calculated on the price excluding tax, according to the method set in Configuration › Company, “Tax settings” card (prices tax inclusive or tax exclusive).
• An unknown cost is shown as unknown — never counted as zero: a margin calculated on a gap would be a lie in figures.
