When you step foot into the world of businesses, you will always hear people talking about their profit margin. This is mainly spoken about amongst small businesses, but even some larger businesses will share with their employees their profit margins, but what does this mean?
Your business profit margin is the amount of profit you will be making after all of the expenses are paid. Your expenses include insurance, employee wages, product costs, and other bills you need to cover. Any outgoings that you need for your business to run are our expenses. The money left after all of these is your profit. You will work out your profit margin in a percentage form. This will show you how much of a percent you are making in profit compared to your spending.
It is important to understand your profit margin to enable your business to grow and make this profit margin larger.
