Afraid not Your best bet is to keep all of that in an accounting program like Quickbooks.

You can add an extra field for the "cost price", hide it in customer area and use it in a query for report like: sell price - cost price - shipping
something like this

Yea, but X-Cart really isn't meant to function as an accounting system - that would add a couple hundred bucks to the cost, and most companies have accounting software already.

Marketing manager allows you to add a cost extra field and run reports to determine profit margins.

Profit reports is really all you need to do that. It basically works the way Steve suggested earlier on.
I'm not sure what you mean about Marketing Manager working on a separate platform though. The Pro package includes profit reports and so gives you even more management information.
