Solution
Gross profit is a company’s revenue minus its cost of goods sold. Gross profit is a company’s residual profit after selling a product or service and deducting the cost associated with its production and sale.
Cost of goods sold is the direct costs attributable to the production or purchase of the goods sold by a company. It excludes indirect expenses such as distribution costs and sales force cost.
Cost of goods sold in the above case = opening stock + purchases + carriage-closing stock = 1,00,000
Gross profit = sales-cost of goods sold = 1,25,000 – 1,00,000 = Rs. 25,000
