Questions
What is the margin?
The share of the selling price that stays with you after the cost. Sell at 100 with a cost of 75: the margin is 25%.
Why is the profit counted without VAT?
Because the 14% belongs to the tax authority: you collect it and pay it on. Count it as profit and the money will be short at the end of the month.
What does the break-even line mean?
How many items a month, at this profit, pay for the rent, salaries and bills. What you sell beyond that is your real profit.
