Formula to calculate Selling price using Gross Margin
Selling Price = Cost / (1-GM%)
40% Margin
For example, if your product costs $100 and the required gross margin is 40%, then your Selling Price = $100/(1-0.4) = $100/0.6 = $166.6
Example 2
35% Margin
You want to sell a bag that costs $3.25 with a 1 color screen print: You want to make 35% Gross Margin.
Selling Price = $3.25/ (1-.35) = $3.25/.65= $5.00
