Answer #1

operating profit to completed sales contract ratio is operating margin only

however completed contract sales method considers all income and expenses related to the long term contract which can be days, months or years.

here the data given is 100% sales completed

the formula to compute the ratio is operating profit / sales*100

operating profit is gross profit - operating expenses

(328329 -162857) = 165472

sales = 2143761

operating margin = 165472 / 2143761 * 100 = 7.718%

this is not a very good ratio and should be improved either by increasing sales or by reducing operating expenses
