Sales minus the cost of goods is your gross profit
Therefore
Sales divided by the Cost of Goods Sold percentage gross profit

Divide the total sales without VAT into the Total Sales minus the Direct Costs without VAT and times 100. In other words its the gross profit in £'s divided by the Total Sales in £'s multiplied by a hundred

firstly calculate your profit margin, for example if your profit margin is 18 percent, divide your annual turnover by 100 and then multiply that figure by the profit margin which in this case would be 18 and the figure you are left with represents the profit.
