The direct cost margin is calculated by taking the difference between the revenue generated by the sale of goods or services and the sum of all direct costs associated with the production of those goods, divided by the total revenue.
To calculate the gross profit margin as a percent, you need to know the revenues and the cost of the goods sold. 1  1. Subtract the total costs of your goods from the revenues the sales generate to find your gross profit. 2  2. Divide your gross profit by your total revenue generated. In this example, you would divide $1,800 by $11,800 to get 0.15. 3. Multiply the result from Step 2 by 100 to find the gross profit margin percentage. Finishing the example, you would multiply 0.15 by 100 to find that your gross profit margin equals 15 percent.
