Gross Profit Margin = Net Income / Net Sales = 62,000 / 515,500 = 12.03%
The gross profit margin is a ratio of the net income and the net sales. The higher this ratio, the greater the net income the company is making off its sales.
Gross Profit Rate = Gross Profit / Net Sales = 168,500 / 515,500 = 32.69%
The gross profit rate is a ratio of the gross profit and the net sales. The higher this ratio, the greater the gross profit the company is achieving compared to its sales. The gross profit rate is widely considered to be more informative than the gross profit amount because it demonstrates a more useful relationship between gross profit and net sales.
