MARK UP VS MARGIN

Ppadambo11y ago
While going through consolidation questions am finding it quit hard to differentiate between markup and margin, when it comes to intercompany trading.

Sing this little mantra to yourself: Mark up is "on" cost Margin is "on" sales And whatever it's "on" is 100 Take it from there And remember that "gross profit" and "gross margin" are alternative ways of referring to "margin" Ok?
