I am a reseller and I am looking to automate the process of pricing the items I put up for sale. I am trying to find an Excel formula that will do the following calculation. I am trying to calculate my asking price based on the price I buy something for. The Ebay fee structure makes this complicated. I am looking for a formula that I can apply to every row in an inventory list.
Here is what I am trying to do.
Calculate sales price "X"
X = The price I ask for my product
Cost of goods sold = my purchase price + Ebay and Paypal fees
Ebay fees being 12% of sales price between $0 and $50 + 6% of $50.01 - $1000 + 2% of $1000.01 and above + 3% Paypal fee
+ 15% profit margin
In other words:
X = Cost of goods sold + profit margin
I want to enter my purchase price of a product and have excel spit out a sales price that covers all costs and allows for a 15% margin. Is this possible?
I know this is complex, thanks in advance.
I have found a lot of Ebay fee calculators. This is not what I’m looking for. I am looking for a formula that turns the price I pay for a product into an Ebay sales price.
