Profit-Sharing Ratio Formula
The following formula is used to calculate the Profit-Sharing Ratio.
PSR = PE / TP * 100
- Where PSR is the Profit-Sharing Ratio (%)
- PE is the profit share received by the employee ($)
- TP is the total profit of the company ($)
To calculate a profit sharing ratio, divide the profit share received by the employee by the total company profit.
How to Calculate Profit-Sharing Ratio?
The following example problems outline how to calculate Profit-Sharing Ratio.
Example Problem #1:
- First, determine the profit share received by the employee ($).
- The profit share received by the employee ($) is given as: 2,500.
- Next, determine the total profit of the company ($).
