Return on sales (%) is the share of operating profit in company's sales volume. The return on sales ratio reflects the efficiency of industrial and commercial activity of an enterprise and shows, how much money remains with the company as a result of the sale of products after covering its costs, interest payments on loans and discharge of taxes.
Return on sales is an indicator of company’s price policy and its ability to control outlays. The differences in the competitive strategies and product ranges cause a significant variety of return on sales values in companies. Therefore, it should be taken into account that the return on sales of two companies can differ a lot at the equal values of revenue, operating expenses and pre-tax profit under the influence of volumes of interest payments on the net profit margin.
