- Gross Profit: This is the amount of money your business has made after deducting the cost of goods sold from the revenue. It represents the basic profitability of your business operations.
- Gross Profit Percentage: This percentage indicates the portion of revenue that remains after deducting the cost of goods sold. It shows how efficiently your business is producing goods or services.
Example Calculation:
Let’s say your business generated $10,000 in revenue, and the cost of goods sold was $6,000.
- Gross Profit = Revenue – Cost of Goods Sold = $10,000 – $6,000 = $4,000
- Gross Profit Percentage = (Gross Profit / Revenue) * 100% = ($4,000 / $10,000) * 100% = 40%
