Inputs

Sheets

Enter each sheet type on its own row (carcass, back panel, doors). You can find out how many sheets you need with the sheet calculator.

  • Sheet 1

Edge banding

You can find the banding length with the edge banding calculator.

Hardware, labor and other costs

Hardware: hinges, slides, handles, screws. Other: panel sizing, CNC, delivery, installation supplies.

Markup and sales tax

Added on top of the cost.

Leave empty to add no tax.

How do you calculate furniture cost and cabinet price?

  • Sheets = Σ (number of sheets × price per sheet); carcass, back panel and door sheets are separate rows.
  • Edge banding = banding length × price per meter. Labor = hours × hourly rate.
  • Total cost = sheets + edge banding + hardware + labor + other costs.
  • Selling price = cost × (1 + markup ÷ 100). The markup is added on top of the cost; its share of the selling price is profit ÷ selling price.
  • If you enter a sales tax or VAT rate, price including tax = selling price × (1 + rate ÷ 100).
  • All prices are the values you enter; the tool does not suggest prices.

Worked example

The figures are only an example. 3 sheets × $50 = $150; 40 m of banding × $0.50 = $20; hardware $50; 10 hours × $25 = $250 of labor; other costs $30. Total cost $500. With a 25% markup, the selling price is 500 × 1.25 = $625; profit is $125, 20% of the selling price.

First work out the cost of the cabinet: sheets, edge banding, hardware, labor and other costs. The selling price is that cost plus your markup; sales tax is added separately. If you quote by the linear meter, it is safer to derive the unit price from jobs you have costed item by item.

Markup is the percentage added on top of the cost: a 25% markup on a $1,000 cost gives a $1,250 selling price. Profit margin is profit as a share of the selling price: $250 ÷ $1,250 = 20%. The tool shows both.

Sheets, edge banding, hardware (hinges, slides, handles, screws), labor, and other costs such as panel sizing, delivery and installation supplies. You can add each job’s share of overheads like rent and electricity to other costs.
