Gross
profit as a percentage of sales less VAT.
Gross
profit is the profit generated from sales less costs of sales (stocks,
warehousing, distribution and store costs) but before administration expenses.
The
ratio gives a good indication of the retail margin before administration is
accounted for.
Again,
the benchmark figure will depend on the trading format.
