The commercial margin concept refers to the difference between the cost of production and the selling price, in short, it is the profit or margin on sales. The following formula is used to calculate the Commercial Margin.


MC: Commercial Margin


PV: Sales price

MC = PV - CP

Suppose you charge $100 for offering a service and let's say that the operation of that service costs you $20; this is the expense directly linked to the execution of the order.
