Gross profit can increase due to higher sales revenue or reduced cost of goods sold, reflecting better pricing or cost management. However, net profit may decline if operating expenses, taxes, or interest expenses rise significantly, outpacing the growth in gross profit. Additionally, increased investment in marketing or research and development can enhance gross profit but may lead to higher overall expenses, impacting net profit negatively. This discrepancy highlights the importance of managing all aspects of a company's financials, not just revenue and direct costs.

Gross Profit Margin = Gross Profit/Revenues Net Profit Margin = Net Profit/Revenues
To find the net sales, we can use the gross profit rate formula. The gross profit is calculated as gross profit rate multiplied by net sales. Given the gross profit rate of 40%, we can set up the equation: Gross Profit = Net Sales × Gross Profit Rate Net Income = Gross Profit - Cost of Goods Sold First, we need to determine gross profit, which can be found by adding net income to cost of goods sold: Gross Profit = Net Income + Cost of Goods Sold = 60,000 + 360,000 = 420,000. Now using the gross profit formula: 420,000 = Net Sales × 0.40 Net Sales = 420,000 / 0.40 = 1,050,000. Thus, US and S's net sales were $1,050,000.
It is impossible for net profit to be greater than gross profit. Gross profit is the income made before any expenses. Net profit is less once all expenses have been deducted.
Net Income = Sales - Gross profit Gross Profit - Cost of Production = Net Income

Gross and Net profit are virtually the same. They both calculate EBT, earnings before taxes - all overhead and salaries.

[Gross Profit Ratio = (Gross profit / Net sales) × 100]
The Gross Profit Margin = Gross Profit/Revenue*100 regardless of weather the Gross Profit is positive or negative (a loss). Therefor, it is acceptable to have a negative Gross Profit Margin.
It is impossible for net profit to be greater than gross profit. Gross profit is the income made before any expenses. Net profit is less once all expenses have been deducted.
Net Income = Sales - Gross profit Gross Profit - Cost of Production = Net Income
Gross means 'before', net means 'after'. Gross profit = sales - cost of sales Net profit = sales - cost of sales - overheads (e.g. telephone, electricity) So gross profit is before deductions, whereas net profit is after all the deductions.
Net sales - CoGS = Gross Profit Gross Profit - other expenses = Net profit before tax Net profit before tax - tax amount = Net profit after tax
Gross Profit/Net Sales = Gross Profit Margin.
1. Net sales - cost of goods sold = Gross profit Gross profit / Net sales = Gross profit ratio
