10. GROSS PROFIT RATIO
Interpretation:
Compare the gross profit of last year and those of other concern carrying similar business.
It actual gross profit is high, it indicates good results.
It actual gross profit is low, it indicates poor results.
11. Illustration 1:
From the following information calculate gross profit ratio.
Cash sales 25% of total sales, Purchases Rs. 11,80,000, Closing stock Rs.3,60,000,
Credit sales Rs.8,22,000, Opening Stock Rs.1,80,000
1. Calculation of Total Sales:
If total sales 100
Less: Cash sales 25
Credit Sales 75
If credit sales 75 ; total sales 100
If credit sales 8,22,000
Total Sales =

* 100 = 10,96,000
Solution 1:
12. Cost of Goods Sold
Opening Stock 1,80,000
Add: Purchases 11,80,000
13,60,000
Less: Closing Stock 3,60,000
Cost of Goods sold 10,00,000
From the following information calculate gross profit ratio.
Cash sales 25% of total sales, Purchases Rs. 11,80,000, Closing stock Rs.3,60,000, Credit sales Rs.8,22,000,
Opening Stock Rs.1,80,000
2. Calculation of Total Sales:
Gross Profit = Net Sales – Cost of goods sold.
Gross Profit = 10,96,000– 10,00,000
= 96,000
13. From the following information calculate gross profit ratio.
Cash sales 25% of total sales, Purchases Rs. 11,80,000, Closing stock Rs.3,60,000, Credit sales Rs.8,22,000,
Opening Stock Rs.1,80,000

14. OPERATING RATIO
It is calculated by dividing Cost of goods sold and operating expenses by the Net Sales.
This ratio establishes the relationship between total operating expenses and sales. Total
operating expenses include cost of goods sold, administrative expenses, financial expenses
and selling expenses.
Formula:
Net Sales = Total Sales – Sales Return
