How to calculate gross profit
Example of a gross profit calculation
Let’s say your business sold £20,000 worth of products or services, and it cost you £8000 to make those products or provide those services.

Gross profit is the difference between what you sold goods and services for and what you paid for those same things. It’s only a stepping stone to net profit. You still have to pay for things like office supplies, rent and loan repayments out of your gross profit.
