    Consider the following calculation

    Explanation:

    Under Veritical analysis of Income statement every line item is compared as a percentage of gross sales.

    So, the cost of goods sold of the current year will be compared as a percentage of gross sales made.

    Cost of goods sold in the current year = $ 417,720

    Gross sales = $ 6,51,000

    Cost of goods sold as a percentage = Cost of goods sold / sales * 100

    = 4,17,720 / 6,51,000 * 100

    = 64%
