What is operating profit ? how is it different from Gross
profit ?

Answer Posted / col ashwani

Net profit= Op profit-(Dep+Int+Tax)+other incomes-other
write off.

Op profit is not equal to net profit.
Net profit is used in balance sheet not the op profit

op profit= Gross Profit-(AE+SE+ME or all conventional
expenses + Capitalized expenses)

Gross Profit=Sales-Cost of goods sold
Cost of goods sold is nothing but
(Opening stock+Purchases+all direct expenses-closing stock)
