# Flight Margin

Update on New Flight form

          

Samsung is rolling out a new and streamlined New Flight form. At this time, you are able to use either version of the form. Learn how to switch between versions [here](/docs/set-up-a-flight).

Please note: In the older version of the **New Flight form**, the Margin function is located in the **General Settings** tab.

In the **Advertiser Margin** section of the New Flight form (located in the **Budget and Bid Tactic** section), you define how much your clients should pay you for this promotion.

Samsung DSP calculates the **Advertiser Margin** metric in your delivery reports based on this configuration.

          
          

The **Set Going Forward** option may be disabled if the flight is not currently running, or if it has already been set once without saving the flight.

## Margin types

### Fixed margin

A fixed margin will calculate advertiser spend as a function of the buyer spend generated by this flight.

**Calculation** `Advertiser Spend = BuyerSpend / (1 - Margin Percentage)`

For example, if you set **25%** in the **Fixed Margin** field and the delivery report indicates *$45.99* for the *Buyer Spend*, the result will be **$61.32** (45.99 / (1-0.25).

### CPA

A fixed CPA (Cost Per Action) will calculate advertiser spend according to the number of conversions attributed to this flight.

**Calculation** `Advertiser Spend = DeliveredConversions * CPA`

For example, if you set **$0.30** in the **CPA** field and the delivery report indicates *1000* for the *Delivered Conversion*, the result will be **$300** (1000 * 0.30).

### CPC

A fixed CPC (Cost Per Click) will calculate advertiser spend according to the number of clicks delivered by this flight.

**Calculcation**à `Advertiser Spend = DeliveredClicks * CPC`

For example, if you set **$0.20** in the **CPC** field and the delivery report indicates *1000* for the *Delivered Click*, the result will be **$200** (1000 * 0.20).

### CPCA

A fixed CPCA (Cost Per Customer Acquisition) will calculate advertiser spend according to the number of post-click conversions attributed to this flight.

**Calculcation** `Advertiser Spend = Post-ClickConversion * CPCA`

For example, if you set **$0.50** in the **CPCA** field and the delivery report indicates *1000* for the *Post-Click Conversion*, the result will be **$500** (1000 * 0.50).

### CPM

A fixed CPM (Cost Per Mille) will calculate advertiser spend according to the number of impressions delivered by this flight.

**Calculation** `Advertiser Spend = DeliveredImpressions * CPM/1,000`

For example, if you set **34.04** in the **CPM** field and the delivery report indicates *17,502* for the *Impression*, the result will be **$595.77** (17,502 * 34.04 / 1000).
