Margin and profit are two different concepts in business administration. Margin refers to the difference
between the sales revenue and the variable costs of a product or service. It therefore indicates how much money
is left over to cover the fixed costs and make a profit.
Profit is the result that remains after all costs (including fixed costs) have been deducted. It therefore indicates how much money the company actually made.
In summary, margin is the difference between sales and variable costs, while profit is the result that remains after
all costs have been deducted.
