A company has $600 million in sales, and $96 million in promotion allowance on a product that cost $210 million to produce. What is the gross margin on the product?
Answer :
Gross Margin = Revenue earned through sales - Cost of goods sold
Cost of goods sold here will include both cost of production which is $210 million and also promotional allowance of $96 million which are administrative expenses related to the selling of the good.
Therefore : Revenue = $600 million
Cost of goods sold = $210 million + $96 million = $306 million
Gross Margin = Revenue - Cost of goods sold = $600 million - $306 million = $294 million
Answer : Option b) $294 million
