    Post [Solved} Finding Gross Profit Percentage

    I'm looking for a formula to tell me what the gross profit percentage would be on fuel deliveries. For example:

    2500 Gallons Diesel Cost = 2.342140 Sold for 2.40140

    Dividing cost from sold is giving me a very different number than our accounting system puts out.

    Thank you for your help.

    Debbie

    .
    .
    =(price-cost)/price

    Price B4
    Cost C4

    example : =(B4-C4)/B4


    2.40140 - 2.342140 / 2.40140
