The formula should divide the profit by the amount of the sale, or = (C2/A2)100 to produce a percentage. In the example, the formula would calculate (17/25)100 to produce 68 percent profit margin ...

For example, assume a company reports an EBITDA of $2 million and total revenue of $10 million. The EBITDA margin would be ($2 million / $10 million) × 100, resulting in a margin of 20%.

For example, if your revenue is $100,000, and your expenses are $60,000, your net profit margin would be (100,000 - 60,000)/100,000, resulting in a net profit margin of 40%.
