    Sir what exactly is the gross profit margin, I know it is the percentage of profit as sales. But in simple terms is what a percentage of profit of whatever is left after ( sales – cost of sales). But I dont understand why as a percentage of sales?

    I am sorry but I don’t understand your question.

    All companies selling goods will want to know their gross profit margin – they will normally want to try and increase it (either by increasing selling price or by cutting costs).
