It then applies the relevant Amazon referral fee percentage for your food category. Finally, it subtracts all Amazon costs and your COGS from the selling price to reveal your net margin per unit.

Common Questions
How accurate are the FBA fee calculations?
The calculations are based on Amazon's publicly available FBA fee structure for standard-size products. While highly accurate for most cases, final fees can vary slightly based on Amazon's exact measurement of your product upon arrival at their fulfillment centers.
Does this tool account for all Amazon costs?
This tool primarily focuses on FBA fulfillment fees and referral fees, which are the largest variable costs. It does not include other potential costs like advertising spend, storage overage fees, or removal order fees.
Can I use this for oversized food products?
This calculator is optimized for standard-size food products. While you can input dimensions for larger items, the FBA fee structure for oversized items is different and more complex, so the results may be less precise.
What if my product is sold in a multi-pack?
For multi-packs, input the total selling price, combined weight, and overall dimensions of the entire multi-pack unit. The COGS should also reflect the cost of all individual items within that multi-pack.
