The higher the ratio, the more ability to cover operating expenses. It is computed by the formula:

Gross margin ratio=Net salesCost of goods soldNet sales

Compute gross margin ratio and profit margin ratio of Company BS.

Gross profitWithout service revenueTotal revenue
Revenues (A)$18,693$44,000
Less: Cost of goods sold (B)($14,052)($14,052)
Gross margin (C) (A)(B)$4,641$29,948
 
Gross margin ratio (D) (C)÷(A)24.8%68.1%

Table (1)

Profit margin ratio: It is one of the profitability ratios. Profit margin ratio is used to measure the percentage of net income that is being generated per dollar of revenue or sales.

Profit margin=Net incomeNet sales
