The formula to calculate the Profit-Sharing Ratio (PSR) is:
\[ PSR = \frac{PE}{TP} \times 100 \]
Where:
Let's say the profit share received by the employee (\( PE \)) is $5000 and the total profit of the company (\( TP \)) is $100,000. Using the formula:
\[ PSR = \frac{5000}{100000} \times 100 = 5\% \]
So, the Profit-Sharing Ratio (\( PSR \)) is 5%.
The profit-sharing ratio is a metric used to determine the percentage of total company profit that is allocated to an employee as their profit share. It helps in understanding the distribution of profits within a company and can be used to assess the fairness and effectiveness of profit-sharing schemes.
