Fee formulas
Every result keeps the core formulas so the margin story can be checked by operators, buyers, or partners.
Marketplace fee
$65.00 × 6% = $3.90
Payment fee
$65.00 × 0% = $0.00
Total fees
$3.90 + $0.00 + $0.00 = $3.90
Total costs
$18.30 + $5.20 + $9.20 + $8.00 + $2.50 + $3.90 = $47.10
Net profit
$65.00 - $47.10 = $17.90
Break-even price
($43.20 + $0.00) ÷ (1 - 6%) = $45.96
Target price
($43.20 + $0.00) ÷ (1 - 6% - 20%) = $58.38
FAQ
Clarifies estimate boundaries, fee-rule review, and when to move from one SKU to the batch workspace.
Which costs does the TikTok Shop calculator include?
It includes price, product and packaging cost, fulfillment, freight or shipping, ads, return reserve, marketplace fee, payment fee, and fixed transaction fee. Channel-specific cost warnings show what still needs review.
Can I use the TikTok Shop result as a final quote?
Not by itself. Seller Abacus is a planning estimate; final quotes, restocking, and ad decisions should still be checked against official fee rules, statements, freight quotes, taxes, and FX.
When should I use the batch SKU workbench?
Use the batch SKU workbench when you need to compare many SKUs, import sourcing sheets, filter low-margin items, or generate a team margin report.
