Gross margin is a simple financial ratio that shows how much of your periodic revenue is left after you subtract costs of goods sold, or COGS. On a monthly revenue of $40,000 and COGS of $25,000, your gross margin is the $15,000 gross profit divided by the $40,000 revenue. This equals 0.375, or 37.5 percent. In essence, 37.5 percent of your revenue remains after COGS are removed, and before you remove operating costs and recognize irregular revenue and expenses.
