Net Profit Margin = Net Profit/ Sales Revenue X 100
measures that are relevant are: (1) the ratio of program expenditures to total expenditures; (2) the ratio of administrative overhead to total expenditures; (3) the ratio of fund-raising expenditures to total expenditures
Divide by the number of parts in the ratio. Imagine sharing sweets between person A and person B in the ratio 2:3. As a proportion Person A would receive 2/5ths (40%) of the sweets and B would receive 3/5ths (60%) of the sweets.

The ratio of all lengths is the same. The ratio of the circumferences = ratio of the radii = 2:3
according to the sharing ratio's of partners, we can distribute profit and loss account.

Profit Margin ratio is the comparison of profit as a percentage of revenue and calculated as follows Profit Margin ratio = Net Profit/Revenue
1.In a Limited Liability Company the liability of the Directors is limited to the extent of in the value of the shares held by them in the company. In a Partnership firm the liability of the partners is in proportion to their profit sharing ratio. 2.The directors in a Limited Liability Company may or may not be shareholders in the company.They could be executive directors on salary. The partners in a partnership firm are the co owners of the company in proportion of capital employed individually. 3.The directors in a Limited Liability company earns salary.They are not liable individually in case of losses in the company. In a Partnership Firm the Partners earns salary (remuneration), Interst on capital employed in the business and a share of profit. 4.The terms and conditions and the the nature of business to be done by a Limited liability company is covered in the Memorandum and Articles of association. The same is covered by a Partnership deed in a partnership firm. The Profit and loss sharing ratio,remuneration to be paid and interest to be paid to partners is mentioned explicitly in the deed.
[Gross Profit Ratio = (Gross profit / Net sales) × 100]

revalutation account is opened to record the revaluation of assets and liabilities.the profit or loss arising because of revaluation is transfered to old partners capital account in their old profit sharing ratio. Companies from time to time check the values of assets and liabilities for there book values and if there is some changes in book values of assets and liabilities that revaluations are made through revaluation account which are later charge to profit and loss account or transferred to reserve account.

This would completely depend on how far the gross profit ratio decreased in the second year compared to the ratio at the start of the year.
Piecemeal Distribution of CashWhat is piecemeal distribution?In actual practice the assets are not realised at once on a single day unless the business is sold to somebody. The partners expect a good price for the assets and therefore, they gradually realise them depending on the market condition. Thus, the whole process of realisation takes some time i.e. may be a few months or even a year or even more. The process followed to discharge the liabilities and claims of the partners as and when the assets are realised is called Piecemeal distribution of cash.What is gradual realisation and distribution of cash?In the process of realising the assets and discharging liabilities, the assets are usually realised slowly, steadily and gradually depending on the demand and the liabilities are discharged as and when the assets are realised. Therefore this process is also known as "gradual realisation and distribution of cash". It is also known as "interim distribution of cash" because when the amount realised is not sufficient to discharge the liability fully, an interim payment is made to the extent of cash available. For the balance, the liability holder should wait for another asset to be realised. Thus, the liabilities are paid off as and when the assets are realised.What is the basis of distribution of cash to capitals of partners in piecemeal distribution of cash? orWhat is the purpose behind adjusting the capitals of partners in their profit sharing ratio in the case of piecemeal distribution of cash?As long as the capital contribution ratio and profit sharing ratio of the partners are one and the same, the distribution of cash as and when realised does not create any problem when pro-rata distribution is made in accordance with their claim. But when these two ratios are different, the pro-rata distribution of cash in accordance with their claims creates problem. If the cash available is distributed in the capital ratio the loss or profit on dissolution to be shared by the partners may not be in the profit sharing ratio. On the contrary, if the cash available is distributed in the profit sharing ratio there is a possibility that one or two partners may get more than what is due to them.What are the methods of distribution on the schemes followed to distribute cash as and when realised in piecemeal?These are the methods of distributing cash in piecemeal namely:(1) Surplus/Excess/Proportionate/Quotient Capital Method.(2) Maximum Possible/Notional Loss Method.What does Surplus or Excess Capital Method mean?It is necessary to adjust the capital of the partners to the profit sharing ratio and pay excess contribution to the partners first as and when the cash is realised. This process should be repeated till the capitals become proportionate to profit sharing ratio. When once the excess contribution of the partner is paid (capitals get adjusted to PSR) the realisation of cash may be distributed to all the partners in their capital PSR.Since the excess capital contribution is found out by comparing with PSR and paid first, this method is called Surplus/Excess Method. This is called Proportionate Capital/Quotient Method because the capitals are ought to be bought in proportion to PSR.What is meant by maximum possible loss method? orWhat are the assumptions under maximum loss method?Maximum loss method is an improved method of distribution of cash as and when realised. Here at every stage of distribution of cash realised, it is assumed that there will be no more realisations and the firm is going to suffer the maximum loss. Thus, the loss calculated on an assumption is distributed to partners in their profit sharing ratio before the partner's claims are paid. The assumption of no more realisations result in a notional loss caused at this stage of realisation.Specify about the order of discharging liabilities in piecemeal distribution of cash?When the assets are realised gradually piece by piece, there is a need to follow a proper order to discharge the liabilities. Out of the scale proceeds, the expenses of dissolution should be met first and the balance should be utilised to pay the outside creditors (Bank O/D, B/P, Creditors, Loans, etc.) in the following order:(1) Payment of fully secured creditors(2) Payment to partly secured creditors to the extent of the securities realisation(3) Payment to preferential creditors (salary, dues to Government)(4) Payment to unsecured creditors(5) Only after completely discharging the unsecured outside creditors, payment to internal liabilities in the form of partners loan should be made(6) Lastly partners should be paid their dues towards their capital.If the creditors cannot be distinguished under the categories stated above, the payment should be made 'pro-rata' based on their outstanding claims as and when the assets are realised.
The limitations for the profit margin ratio is in comparing different industries. Profit margins between say a supermarket and an aircraft manufacturer would vary considerably.
