What is Profit Percentage?

Profit Percentage is the ratio of profit to cost, expressed as a percentage. It shows the profit earned per unit of cost. A higher profit percentage indicates greater profitability for a business.

How to Calculate Profit Percentage

The formula to calculate profit percentage is: \( \text{Profit Percentage} = \frac{\text{Profit}}{\text{Cost}} \times 100\% \)

Examples

Example 1: Given that profit is 200 and cost is 1000, calculate the profit margin.

Solution:

\( \text{Profit Percentage} = \frac{200}{1000} \times 100\% = 20\% \)

Result: The profit percentage is 20%.

Example 2: Given that profit is 500 and cost is 2000, what is the profit percentage?

Solution:

\( \text{Profit Percentage} = \frac{500}{2000} \times 100\% = 25\% \)

Result: The profit percentage is 25%.
