EBIT Margin
In accounting, EBIT margin is a measure of an organization's profit which is found as earnings before interest and tax(EBIT) divided by net revenue. It helps to identify the organization yearly growth.
Calculate Earnings Before Interest and Taxes Margin
Formula Earnings Before Interest and Taxes Margin
EBIT = R - E
EBIT Margin = EBIT / R
Taxable Income = EBIT - I
Tax Amount = Taxable Income x T
Net Income = Taxable Income - Tax Amount
Profit Margin = Net Income / R
Where,
- R = Sales Revenue
- E = Operating Expenses
- I = Interest Paid
- T = Tax Rate
Example Earnings Before Interest and Taxes Margin
A company has sales of $500000 with operating costs of $450000, interest paid of $6000 and a tax rate of 30%. Calculate the EBIT, Net Income, and Profit Margin.
Given
Sales Revenue (R) = $500000 Operating Expenses (E) = $450000 Interest Paid (I) = $6000 Tax Rate (T) = 30% = 0.3
To Find
Earnings Before Interest and Taxes, Net Income and Profit Margin
Solution
EBIT = R - E
= $500000 - $450000
= $50000
EBIT Margin = EBIT / R
= ($50000 / $500000) x 100
= 10 %
Taxable Income = EBIT - I
= $50000 - $6000
= $44000
Tax Amount = Taxable Income x T
= $44000 x 0.3
= $13200
Net Income = Taxable Income - Tax Amount
= $44000 - $13200
= $30800
Profit Margin = Net Income / R
= ($30800 / $500000) x 100
= 6.16 %
