you're new to this channel then you can subscribers by clicking the bell icon
[20]
that's given below welcome everyone let's begin with the
[24]
today's topic that is the gross profit percentage formula so the gross profit
[28]
percentage formula percentage is the formula which is used by the free call as
[34]
the management the investors basically and the financial analysts to know the
[40]
financial health basically the profitability of the company after the
[44]
accounting for the cost of sales is calculated by dividing the gross profit
[48]
of the company by its net sales so first of all what is the gross profit
[57]
percentage let's study this see the gross profit percentage is a measure of the
[64]
profitability that calculates how much of every dollar of the revenue is left
[68]
over after paying off the cost of goods so in other word it measures the
[73]
efficiency of the company in utilizing the inputs of the costs of production
[79]
such as like raw material
[84]
and labor in order to produce and sell its products profitability it can be
[91]
seen as a percentage of the sale that exceeds direct cost associated with the
[95]
manufacturing in products so these direct costs or so called as cogs
[103]
primarily consist of raw materials and direct labor the calculation of the
[107]
gross profit percentage formula is done by dividing the the gross profit okay
[112]
you can say the gross profit percentage formula is done by dividing the gross profit
[117]
it by the total sales and express it in percentage terms
[121]
well let's understand the margin formula here the gross profit percentage is
[128]
represented by the gross profit percentage formula is equal to gross
[139]
profit divided by the total sales in
[146]
100% so it can be further be expanded as the gross profit percentage
[151]
formula is the total sales
[155]
less the cost of goods sold divided by the total sales into 100% it was so the
[165]
money that is remaining after covering the cogs is used for these services
[170]
and other operating expenses like selling Commission expenses and so on
[179]
and so for the journal admit expense research and development marketing
[182]
expands interest experience that appears further below in the income statement so
[188]
asset these are the higher it is it is better for the company to pay off its
[193]
operating expense for the business let's understand the steps to determine the Gb
[199]
percentage well the calculation of the gb+ formula
[203]
can be simply be done by using the following steps step number one is that
[207]
you first you know the total sales of the company okay which is easily
[215]
available as a line item in the income statement second now next gather the COGS
[223]
directly from the income statement or compute the COGS by adding a direct
[229]
cost of manufacturing such as raw material labor wages and so on and so
[234]
forth third next is the gross profit is calculated by deducting the COGS is
[239]
from the total sales that is the gross profit is equal to the total sales -
[250]
COGS step number 4 finally it is calculated by dividing the gross
[259]
profit by the total sales that is shown and it is expressed in the percentage that
[271]
names just so the gross profit for percentage formula
[278]
is equal to your total sales less the co GS /
[288]
the total sales into 100% let us understand this with the help of an
[296]
example let's understand the concept with the help of a simple example to
[301]
understand it better example number one
[306]
let us consider the example of a company all X Y Z limited before doing the
[311]
calculation of gross profit the X Y Z limited is a business of into
[314]
manufacturing customer is roller skates for both the professional and the
[318]
amateur skaters so in the end of the financial year XYZ Limited has or let's
[322]
say around $150,000 in total okay net sales doing they along with the
[333]
following expenses so as for the equation based on the below information
[337]
over which I'm going to provide we will do the calculation of the gross profit
[341]
percentages first of all labor raw material factory
[348]
rent interest depreciation and then taxes gonna note down numbers for each of them
[357]
50000, 25000, 5000, 10000 ,15000 & 5000
[369]
so by using the about it I will first calculate the cost of goods sold the
[374]
COGS is equal to your labor wages plus your raw material expense plus your
[385]
factory rent that is equal to
[390]
50 + 25 + 5000 that comes down to 80,000 so that's your
[400]
cogs only those costs are taken to computation of the cogs which had me
[405]
directly be allocated to the production and now we will calculate the gross
[409]
profit by using the given data somewhere close like this the gross profit is
[416]
equal to your total sales that was $150,000 in the initial less the COGS
[428]
that is 80,000 which we calculated win it back so of a gross profit is 75,000 and
[435]
therefore the calculation of the gross profit percentage of the XYZ limited
[438]
will be
[442]
it's called the GP percentage
[447]
70,000 /150,000 into 100% Comes down too closely around
[457]
46.67% so XYZ limited gross profit percentage
[464]
for the year stood at 47% it's do example number 2 now let us
[473]
take the example of the Appling for the gross profit percentage calculation for
[477]
the fiscal year 2016-17 2018 press for the annual report the information that
[483]
can be available based on the details it's going to be the net
[489]
sales
[493]
2016 2017 and 2018
[502]
well the net sales over here we are gonna put down 215639 215639 2
[513]
29234 265595 then the cost of sales that is 131376
[526]
141048 and one 163756 so by using the
[536]
about eight hour we will be will be first we calculate the gross profit of
[541]
the apple inc for the year 2016 the gross profit is the gross of the gross profit
[545]
2016 is equal to net sales minus the cost of the goods sold so it's as simple
[553]
as that just this is your gross profit GP okay
[558]
this is your gross profit then the gross of it for 2017
[565]
head then 2018 right so we have found all the numbers and you know how we
[572]
calculate gross profit divided by the sales the GP percentage
[583]
is equal to your gross profit / sales
[591]
into 100% control R convert this into percentage there we go
[600]
we have all over answers now I want to make you understand
[604]
first what exactly is the relevance and uses of this formula see the
[611]
understanding of it is this is very important for an investor because it
[615]
shows how much profitability is the core business activities of the company are
[618]
without taking into consideration any sort of indirect costs okay so an
[625]
analyst can use these ratios specially as an assessment metric to compare the
[630]
operating performance of the company with other players within the same
[633]
industrial sector and also the company is used these ratio as an indication
[639]
okay of the financial benefit and the viability of a particular
[653]
product or services see any money that is left over after covering the COGS
[663]
is used to pay of the other operating expenses in simple words higher it is
[668]
more the company saves on each of the dollar of the sales in service and other
[672]
operating costs the business obligation so if a company is capable of sustaining
[675]
materially materially higher gross profit margin compared to the most of
[679]
the other peers always it means that it has more efficient processes and more
[683]
efficient operations that makes it safe long term investment on the other hand
[688]
if you see a company is not able to earn let's say n equal top gross profit
[692]
percentage it may be difficult for such a company to pay of its operating expenses
[696]
and as such the gross profit percentage alpha company should be stable unless
[701]
and until there are some major changes done by the company's business model
[704]
