When youâve finished kneading, shape the dough into a loose ball. Place the dough in an oiled bowl, turning it over to coat the surface lightly with oil, and let it rest smooth-side up. Cover the dough with a damp kitchen towel or plastic wrap to keep the surface from drying out.
Operating margin or operating profit margin measures what proportion of a company's revenue is left over, after deducting direct costs and overhead and before taxes and other indirect costs such as interest. Operating margin is used to measure company's pricing strategy and operating efficiency.
Sales â Cost of Sales = Gross Profit â Operating Expenses = Operating Income. Using the operating income margin as an indicator--computed by simply dividing operating income by total sales--will allow you to measure managementâs efficiency in running the business. The higher the margin, the more efficient--this means that operating expenses are consciously guarded as sales grow.
