Get Publisher Rocket →This worksheet illustrates how page count, list price, and cost assumptions can affect a simple royalty calculation. It is not an official KDP calculator and does not replace current KDP pricing information.
The worksheet uses a simplified cost model so authors can compare scenarios. Actual printing cost, royalty eligibility, and distribution choices are determined by KDP and may differ from the values shown here.
Use current KDP documentation and your own project research to review price, reader expectations, production costs, and distribution choices. No pricing method guarantees sales, royalties, approval, or profitability.
