Gross revenue is a financial metric that represents the total amount of money a business generates from its primary operations before deducting any costs or expenses. While gross revenue doesn’t reflect a company’s profitability, it does provide an overall measurement of its top-line performance.
To calculate gross revenue, you need to multiply the total number of units sold by the price at which those units were sold.
The formula is straightforward:
Formula: Gross Revenue = Number of Units Sold x Price per Unit
So, if a company sells 500 units of a product at a price of $20 per unit, its gross revenue would be $10,000.
Gross revenue margin is highly relative and it’s based on several key factors, including your industry, competitive landscape, and specific business type. In general, you won’t get much useful information by comparing your margin across industries, it’s a better idea to look at your niche peers.
For example, manufacturing companies typically have gross revenue margins ranging from 20% to 40%. However, highly specialized or niche manufacturing businesses may record even higher margins. On the other hand, the software industry often enjoys higher gross revenue margins due to its relatively low production costs. Gross revenue margins in the software sector can range from 70% to 90%.
Ultimately, the goal for any business is to achieve a gross revenue margin that allows for covering costs, generating profit, and remaining competitive within its industry. And while higher margins indicate better profitability, it’s crucial to consider specific industry dynamics and other financial metrics as well.
