How to Calculate Discounts

Discounts are calculated using these formulas:

Discount Amount = Original Price × (Discount Percentage / 100)
Final Price = Original Price - Discount Amount

These calculations help you determine the amount saved and the final price after applying a discount.

The Impact of Discounts on Profit

While discounts can drive sales volume, they also affect your profit margin. Consider these factors when offering discounts:

  • Make sure your final price still covers costs and provides acceptable profit
  • Calculate how much additional volume you need to maintain profitability
  • Consider the strategic purpose of the discount (clearing inventory, attracting new customers, etc.)
  • Use discounts strategically rather than as a default pricing strategy
