What's the difference between margin and markup?

Margin is profit as a percentage of selling price. Markup is profit as a percentage of cost. A 50% markup equals a 33.3% margin.

How do I calculate selling price from margin?

Selling Price = Cost / (1 - Margin%). For example, $70 cost with 30% margin = $70 / (1 - 0.30) = $100.
