问题如下:
Assuming there is no fixed costs, which of the following would most likely lead to higher gross profit margin?
选项:
A.Increasing the number of goods sold.
B.Decreasing the cost of producing each good.
C.Decreasing the costs of administration.
解释:
B is correct.
Decreasing the cost of producing each good would lower the cost of units sold, thus leading to higher pross profit.
Because there is no fixed cost, increasing the number of goods sold will result in no change in gross profit margin.
Gross profit margin contains no administrative expenses.
考点:影响毛利率(gross profit margin )的因素
毛利率 = 毛利 / 销售收入 = (销售收入 - 销售成本) / 销售收入 = (销售收入 - 销售变动成本 - 销售固定成本) / 销售收入
B选项正确:降低生产每种商品的成本会降低销售单位的成本,从而导致更高的单位利润。
A选项错误:由于题目说没有固定成本,增加销售数量不会导致毛利率发生变化。
比如 单价是100,每一个成本是80,销售10个的gross margin=20%
销售20个的gross margin还是等于20%,因为每多销售一个商品,就会每增加一个商品的成本。但固定成本的金额是一定的,每多销售一个商品,就相当平摊到一个商品中的成本在下降,但这一题假设没有固定成本, 所以gross margin不变
老师您好,
如果选C选项,是不是可以理解为增加了oprating income?
谢谢老师。
