industry and a companys position within the industry,boundaries are set by the operating characteristics of the industry,within these boundaries profitability ratios are determined by a players relative position,Bain typically uses gross profit and operating profit to measure profitability,ROS can be altered by non-operating activities,such as sources of financing or tax rate manipulations,Extraordinary items,because they are for unusual events,such as discontinued items or asset sales,are excluded when we analyze the performance of the base business,Profitability ratios measure a firms ability to manage costs relative to revenues.,9,Profitability Ratios-Over Time,Gross profit margin,should stay constant or increase because cost of goods sold should be a constant percent of sales or should decrease as company gets price increases and/or volume discounts,Operating margin,should increase as fixed administrative and sales costs are spread over a greater number of units,Effective tax rate,should stay constant or decrease since a larger firm is able to take advantage of more tax shelters,As a company grows,its return on sales should increase.,Higher return on
