Gross Profit or Loss |
The total gross profit or loss earned from the customer. The difference between total direct costs excluding overhead and the sub-total. If calculating Gross Profit and Loss for progress claims, the report considers the percentage claimed for each individual cost centre and applies that percentage to the Gross Profit and Loss indicated on the corresponding cost centre in the job. The report adds the values calculated from each cost centres together to calculate the final figure. Example Cost Centre 1 Percentage Claimed: 10% Cost Centre 1 Gross P / L: $100 10% of $100 = $10 Cost Centre 2 percentage claimed: 50% Cost Centre 2 Gross P / L: $200 50% of $200 = $100 Gross P / L on the Customer Rank Report: $100 + $10 = $110 If calculating Gross Profit on Loss on a claim per item invoice, the total value of the items claimed are calculated as a percentage. That percentage is then applied to the Gross Profit and Loss on the job. |
