Formula notes

Revenue = selling price + shipping charged to the buyer.

Amazon platform fee = max(revenue × referral fee rate, minimum referral fee). FBA, storage, inbound placement, shipping, packaging, ads, and other costs are modeled as unit fixed costs.

Target price is solved from fixed costs and variable rates, then buyer-paid shipping is subtracted.

Risk rules

Official sources define fee types, calculation bases, and eligibility conditions. The prefilled 15%, $0.30, FBA fulfillment, storage, and inbound-placement amounts are editable example assumptions, not an Amazon quote for any product.

This MVP does not model full size tiers, long-term storage, removal orders, return processing fees, low-inventory fees, or category-specific ladders.

Warnings appear when ad cost, returns, variable rates, negative profit, or target margin assumptions become risky.

Amazon FBA unit-economics stress test

The same price can produce a different result when ad competition, inventory velocity, and returns move. These scenarios hold the product and base rates constant while changing one explainable cost group.

These are planning stress tests built from the page's editable defaults, not platform quotes. Replace them with data for the same SKU, shop, country, and settlement period.

Scenario 1

Current baseline

Changed inputs: Uses the page's editable example defaults
Net profit per order
$8.59
Net margin
21.5%
Break-even price
$29.25
Target price
$39.00

Replace the baseline with per-unit charges from Seller Central and the Revenue Calculator before comparing scenarios.

Scenario 2

Paid-acquisition pressure

Changed inputs: Ad cost per order $4.00 → $8.00
Net profit per order
$4.59
Net margin
11.5%
Break-even price
$34.25
Target price
$45.67

If higher ad cost misses the target margin, solve for an affordable CPA instead of relying on ROAS alone.

Scenario 3

Inventory and return pressure

Changed inputs: Storage allocation $0.30 → $0.75 · Inbound placement allocation $1.20 → $1.80 · Return-loss rate 5.0% → 12.0%
Net profit per order
$4.74
Net margin
11.9%
Break-even price
$33.49
Target price
$46.13

When storage, inbound placement, and returns rise together, the target price shows the gap that pricing or inventory work must close.

FAQ

Which Amazon referral fee should I use?

Use the exact category rate from Seller Central or Amazon's fee schedule. The default 15% is only an editable planning assumption.

Does this replace Amazon's official revenue calculator?

No. It is a fast unit-economics model. Reconcile final fulfillment, storage, refund, and category charges with Amazon reports.

Why are storage and inbound placement separate?

Many seller models treat them as per-unit allocations, so the calculator keeps them visible instead of hiding them inside one FBA number. Replace the examples with the Revenue Calculator, shipping-plan, and Seller Central amounts for the product.
