Definition

:question_mark:

Difference between the minimum acceptable margin threshold for the product group and the SKU average margin percent. A negative value indicates the SKU is below the threshold.

Formula

(s2.FirstQuartileMarginRate - (1.5*s2.IQRmarginRate)) - s1.AvgMarginPct

Margin Uplift

Definition

:question_mark:

Estimated profit uplift (in value) if the SKU margin is moved toward the midpoint between the SKU’s current average margin percent and the product group’s average margin percent.

Formula

((s1.Revenue* (s1.AvgMarginPct + s2.AvgMarginPct)/2) -  s1.Profit)

Margin Lift Potential Pct

Definition

:question_mark:

Relative uplift potential compared to current profit, assuming the SKU margin moves to the midpoint between the SKU average margin percent and the product group average margin percent.

Formula

(s1.Revenue* (s1.AvgMarginPct + s2.AvgMarginPct)/2) / NULLIF(s1.Profit,0) - 1

Revenue Uplift

Definition

:question_mark:

Estimated value uplift associated with applying the midpoint margin target to the SKU’s revenue (expressed as incremental profit value vs. current profit).

Formula

((s1.Revenue* (s1.AvgMarginPct + s2.AvgMarginPct)/2) -  s1.Profit)

Suggested Margin %

Definition

:question_mark:

Suggested target margin percent for the SKU, based on the midpoint between the SKU’s current average margin percent and the product group’s average margin percent.

Formula

((s1.Revenue * ((s1.AvgMarginPct + s2.AvgMarginPct) / 2)) / NULLIF(s1.Revenue, 0))
