Understanding the Report Content
-
AGS (Adjusted Gross Sales): AGS represents your total sales, adjusted for any returns or allowances. It includes various income categories such as mailbox service, copies, color copies, laminating/binding, and more. The report provides both the dollar amount and the percentage of total AGS for each category, allowing you to see the overall contribution of each category to your sales. The figures are compared to those from the previous reporting period to show changes over time.
-
Cost of Goods Sold on AGS: This section details the cost of goods sold (COGS) for each revenue category, allowing you to understand the direct costs associated with producing the goods sold in your business.
-
Gross Profit on AGS Sales: This portion of the report outlines the gross profit for each revenue category. Gross profit is calculated by subtracting the COGS from the corresponding AGS. The gross profit percentages indicate the profit margin for each category.
-
Variable Expenses: Variable expenses are costs that change in direct proportion to the volume of goods or services your business produces. This section includes payroll/salaries, advertising/promotion, royalty/adv./media fees, and other variable expenses.
-
Fixed Expenses: Fixed expenses are costs that do not vary with the volume of goods or services produced. They include business insurance, rent for the store, telephone expenses, utilities, and other fixed costs.
-
Operating Profit: This is the profit your business makes from operations, calculated by subtracting total operating expenses (variable and fixed) from the gross profit.
-
Non-Operating Income & Expense: These are revenues, gains, expenses, and losses that are not related to a company's normal operations. This could include salaries for the owner, income taxes, and other expenses.
-
Net Operating Profit: This is the final profit after all expenses and non-operating income and expenses have been considered. It reflects your business's profitability during a specific period.
