Outline your
pricing strategies
that will help you reach your target
profit margin.
Gross profit margin is most easily understood if it is expressed as a financial ratio, whereby:
The
cost
of
goods
sold is
compared
to the company's net
sales.
Firms that sell a service will typically have very
low
or
no
cost of goods sold.
Gross Profit Margin = (
net
sales -
cogs
) /
net
sales
The
COGS
is made up of the company's
direct
costs.
Direct
costs are usually
variable
in nature.
