If revenue is less than costs, the gross profit is negative -- it is not a profitable company.
Revenue - Cost = Gross profit
Restaurant Gross profit = Total generated revenue - total costing *total costing = fixed assets, stock in hand, manpower, utilities, rental and maintenance. *Gross profit=Revenues-Variable costs-fixed costs
Yes. Usually when people say revenue, they mean gross earnings, and since a profit is generally considered a positive number (gross earnings - costs). As long as gross earnings are great than costs, a profit is still made.
To calculate operating expenses from a balance sheet, you can subtract the cost of goods sold (COGS) from the total revenue. Operating expenses include items such as salaries, rent, utilities, and marketing costs. Subtracting COGS from revenue gives you the gross profit, and then subtracting operating expenses from the gross profit gives you the operating income.
To determine economic profit in a business, subtract total costs (including both explicit and implicit costs) from total revenue. Economic profit is calculated by subtracting all costs, including opportunity costs, from total revenue.
The answer will depend on profits as a percentage of what! As a percentage of revenue, it would be 100*(Total Revenue - Total Costs)/Total Revenue In example (as given in discussion page) Total Revenue = 236,000 Total Costs = 173,000 Total Profit = Total Revenue - Total Costs = 63,000 So percentage profit = 100*63,000/236,000 = 26.7% (approx).
A profit and loss statement for a small business typically includes revenue, expenses, gross profit, operating income, and net profit. Revenue represents the money earned from sales, while expenses are the costs incurred to generate that revenue. Gross profit is the difference between revenue and the cost of goods sold. Operating income is the profit after deducting operating expenses, and net profit is the final amount after all expenses are subtracted from revenue.
Economic profit is calculated by subtracting both explicit costs (such as wages and rent) and implicit costs (such as opportunity costs) from total revenue. Factors considered in determining economic profit include production costs, revenue generated, and the value of alternative opportunities foregone.
If there is no cost of goods sold, then your gross margin is 100%. In other words, all the revenue you receive translates into gross profit. The type of business that would report this kind of result is most likely to perform services and dividing the Profit and Loss Statement into a gross profit and net profit section is irrelevant.
Gross profit can be determined the costs associated with making a sale and the total sale (revenue) itself. Many items will effect gross profit. On the revenue side, items such as the number of goods sold and the price at which they are sold both factor into the revenue from which the costs are subtracted. These costs may include manufacturing expenses, raw material costs, labor costs, selling and general administrative costs and other expenses. Any alteration in the cost structure of these items listed will effect the gross profit that is realized with the sale of a good or service.
