Retail Margin, Trade Discount, & What it Means for the Author

DEFINITIONS

Retail margin is basically the difference between your book’s
wholesale price and your book’s retail price. For example, a
book with a cover price of $10 and a wholesale price of $5 has a
50% retail margin.

Wholesale price is the cost of your book to a retailer. To use
the same rudimentary example, a book with a cover price of $10
and a retail margin of 50% will be sold to a retailer for $5.

Retail price is the same as cover price or selling price. This
is the cost of the book to the end consumer (the reader). The
retail price is typically printed on the cover of the book and
also “embedded” within the barcode on the back. For example, a
book with a wholesale price of $5 and a retail margin of 50%
will have a retail price of $10.

As you can see, retail margin, wholesale price, and retail price
are interconnected. By having two figures, the third can be
calculated.

The fourth definition to be aware of is the trade discount,
which is the percentage off the retail price that a wholesaler
or distributor pays for your book. Since the retail margin is a
portion of the trade discount, the trade discount always exceeds
the retail margin. Distributors typically expect between 50% -
70% in order to provide an acceptable margin to the retailer.
