## What it means for a shop owner

It differs from gross profit, which only subtracts the cost of goods. You can sell plenty and keep little because rent and wages ate it. This is the number that tells you whether the shop does well.

## A worked example

Sales are 10,000 and cost of goods 6,000, so gross profit is 4,000. After 3,000 of costs, net profit is 1,000.
