The formula
Exactly what this calculator does with your numbers — no hidden assumptions.
Referral fee
A percentage of the total sales price (item + shipping + gift wrap) — 15% for most categories, with a $0.30 minimum per item in most categories.
Tiered categories
Clothing uses one rate for the whole price (5% up to $15, 10% to $20, 17% above). Jewelry charges 20% on the first $250 and 5% on the rest.
FBA fees
If Amazon ships for you, add the FBA fulfilment fee for your size tier. Storage, inbound placement and returns processing can add more.
