1. Profitability Ratios
Profitability ratios are a class of financial metrics that are used to assess a business's
ability to generate earnings relative to its associated expenses. For most of these ratios,
having a higher value relative to a competitor's ratio or relative to the same ratio from a
previous period indicates that the company is doing well.

A. Gross profit ratio (GP ratio) is a profitability ratio that shows the relationship
between gross profit and total net sales revenue. It is a popular tool to evaluate
the operational performance of the business. The ratio is computed by dividing
the gross profit figure by net sales.
1. Gross Profit Ratio = (Gross profit/ Net Sales)*100

2015-16 = (3,200,762.57 / 33,878,859.46)*100

=0.094477*100

= 9.447%

2016-17 = (5760437.84⁄55874426.30) ∗ 100

=0.10309614293*100

=10.309%
