The "Real Talk"
Pricing
- From their Website:
- KDP offers a fixed 60% royalty rate on paperbacks sold on Amazon marketplaces where KDP supports paperback distribution. Your royalty is 60% of your list price. We then subtract printing costs, which depend on page count, ink type, and the Amazon marketplace your paperback was ordered from. Learn how printing costs are calculated.
(Royalty rate x list price) – printing costs = royalty
For example, your list price is $15. Your book is a 333-page paperback with black ink sold on the US marketplace:
(0.60 x $15) - $4.85 = $4.15
Liscencing
- From their Website:
- Rights. Keep control of your rights and set your own list prices. Make changes to your books at any time.
