    5 NOV 2010 OK GUYS THIS IS WHAT I HAVE LEARN FOR CALCULATING GROSS PROFIT.

    I KNOW YOU WOULD HAVE GREATER KNOWLEDGE FOR THIS BUT I WANTED TO DOCUMENT IT SO YOU GUYS CAN GIV E YOUR INPUT. TO PUT IT SIMPLY: GROSS PROFIT= SALES - PURCHASES NOW TO CALCULATE PURCHASES(COST): PURCHASES= [COST PRICE(CP) OF ITEM] X [QUANTITY SOLD] TO CALCULATE SALES: SALES= [RETAIL PRICE(RP) OF ITEM] X [QUANTITY SOLD]

    ASSUME WE HAVE A STORE THAT SELLS 3 ITEMS NAMELY: PEPSI= COST PRICE= Rs.10, RETAIL PRICE= Rs.20, QUANTITY= 100 (AVERAGE STOCK OF DAY) BURGER= COST PRICE= Rs.50, RETAIL PRICE= Rs.100, QUANTITY= 100 (AVERAGE STOCK OF DAY) CHIPS= COST PRICE= Rs.10, RETAIL PRICE= Rs.50, QUANTITY= 100 (AVERAGE STOCK OF DAY) NOW SUPPOSE WE HAVE TO CALCULATE GROSS PROFIT(GP) OF TODAY IF WE HAVE SOLD: PEPSI= 100, BURGER= 80, CHIPS= 90 SINCE: PURCHASES= [COST PRICE(CP) OF ITEM] X [QUANTITY SOLD] PEPSI= 10 X 100 = 1000 BURGER= 50 X 80 = 4000 CHIPS= 10 X 90 = 900 TOTAL PURCHASES OR COST= 1000 + 4000 + 900 = Rs.5900 ALSO: SALES= [RETAIL PRICE(RP) OF ITEM] X [QUANTITY SOLD] PEPSI= 20 X 100 = 2000 BURGER= 100 X 80 = 8000 CHIPS= 50 X 90 = 4500 TOTAL SALES= 2000 + 8000 + 4500 = Rs.14500 PUTTING THE AMOUNTS IN THE GROSS PROFIT EQUATION

    GROSS PROFIT = SALES - PURCHASES GROSS PROFIT = Rs.14500 - Rs.5900 GROSS PROFIT = Rs.8600 THIS IS A VERY SIMPLE N ABSTRACT WAY OF CALCULATING GROSS PROFIT. ACTUALLY THERE ARE OTHER THINGS TO CONSIDER FOR CALCULATING GROSS PROFIT LIKE TRAVELING OR DEL IVERY EXPENSES ETC BUT USMAN WILL BE THE BEST JUDGE ON whether to include it or not. BUT WE SHOULD KEEP IN MIND THAT ALL BUSINESSES ARE MORE CONCERNED ABOUT NET PROF IT FOR EVERY YEAR OR QUARTER ETC WHICH INCLUDE ALL OTHER COSTS LIKE: SALARIES OF EMPLOYEES COMISSION/DISCOUNT ON ITEMS TRAVELING ADVERTISING DELIVERY EXPENSES TELEPHONE/CELL POSTAL RENT OF OFFICE INSURANCE ON GOODS BAD DEBTS (AMOUNT NOT RECEIVED AGAINST SALES) ADMIN EXPENSES UTILITIES DEPRECIATION MISC(ENTERTAINMENT ETC)

    TONITE I WILL IMPLEMENT THIS SCENARIO ON IMONGGO N OTHER POS TO CHECK HOW THEY D O IT. TALK TO YOU SOON. SORRY FOR NOT ABLE TO RESPOND TO YOUR SMS, I HAVE BEEN RECEIVI NG VERY LATE/MULTIPLE MSGS EITHER DUE TO MY CELL OR JAZZ WHICH IS VERY EMBARRAS SING TO SAY THE LEAST. I WILL VISIT SADDAR TOMORROW TO RESOLVE THIS STUPID PROBL EM. OK BROS TAKECARE.
