Total 2013 revenue of the group = 575 + 315 + 112 = 1002 So, Transport produces 575/1002 = 57.39% Operating profit % = operating profit/sales so Operating profit = Sales x Operating profit % Total operating profit = 575 x 10.8% + 315 x 14.55% + 112 x 4.75% = 113.2525 Transport's share = 575 x 10.8/113.2525 = 54.83%
