Here is how you reach net profit on a P&L (Profit & Loss) account:
Sales Revenue = Price (of product) X Quantity Sold
Gross profit = sales revenue – cost of sales and other direct costs
Operating profit (EBIT, earnings before interest and taxes) = Gross profit – overheads and other indirect costs
Pretax Profit (EBT, earnings before taxes) = operating profit – one off items and redundancy payments, staff restructuring – interest payable
Net profit= Pre-tax profit – tax
Retained earnings = Profit after tax – Dividends

Answer / deepak choudhary
Gross profit is the difference between Sales and Cost of Sales. Cost of Sales is the purchase price of the goods to be sold together with the cost of getting them ready for sale.
eg A manufacturer would charge production labour and some overheads to Gross Profit.
Net profit remains after all expenses except for profit tax have been charged to the gross profit. These may include Staff salaries, rent, rates, motor expenses, auditors' remuneration etc.
