4 14-4 Percentage We can use the trend percentages to construct a graph so we can see the trend over time Year Sales COGS GM Common-size statements use percentages to express the relationship of individual components to a total within a single period. This is also known as vertical analysis. Gross Margin Percentage Gross Margin Percentage Gross Margin Sales This measure indicates how much of each sales dollar is left after deducting the cost of goods sold to cover expenses and provide a profit. In balance sheets, all items are expressed as a percentage of total assets.
