GP analysis

GP means gross profit, which is the profit we earn before we take off any administration costs, selling costs and so on.

So gross profit = turnover - cost of goods sold.

You can calculation gross profit margin (i.e. gross profit / turnover) to analyze your business. The gross profit margin ratio tells us the profit a business makes on its cost of sales, or cost of goods sold. It is a very simple idea and it tells us how much gross profit per £1 of turnover our business is earning.


You can analyze your sales and gross profit by product, customer, salesperson or any combination of the three. Learn where your strengths and weaknesses lie in order to properly plan for the future and implement effective pricing strategies.
