you just simply follow this formula:

Gross Profit = Sales - Cost of Goods Sold

made and are incurred as a direct result of producing the product.

Variable costs include:


1. Materials used
2. Direct labor
3. Packaging
4. Freight
5. Plant supervisor salaries
6. Utilities for a plant or a warehouse
