Gross margin
The Transparency of Suppliers and Government to the Public, published by the Cabinet Office in 2015, gross margin as: ‘…the excess of revenues over the cost of revenues, meaning the direct costs associated with the labour and materials required to perform the contract. This would mirror the exact definition in how the supplier’s accountants would calculate the gross margin for the overall business, so should be straight forward. If there are anomalies to this calculation, they can be stated rather than re-calculated if easier.’
