Maths Question
|
If I am buying something for 30p and selling it for 47p what is the formula to know what margin percentage I am making.
On Excel, if the cost is in D2 and the Sale is in E2 - what is the formula.
Help would be much appreciated.
Mr W. |

As no doubt everyone on this thread has intoned, your margin here is the difference between buying and selling price, divided by your buying price and multiplied by 100:
(47-30)/30*100

By an amazing coincidence, this also works with sqrt(295) + 39i. |

Ok..................think of a number between 1-100.
Double it (x2) Add 27 Divide by 2 Take off the first number you thought of
The answer is 13.5 |

Sorry that should be
(E2-D2)/D2
= 56.67% |

E2/D2 - 1 is actually the easiest.
