The Gross Operating Profit (GOP) is an all important figure in the monthly reports, calculated from Departmental Revenues less the Departmental Costs and Undistributed Operating Expenses. Converting revenues to a target level of GOP is essential for ensuring that we create the bottom line income required to sustain our business for the future. But different types of revenue create different levels of GOP - how do we monitor that we are creating the expected level of GOP? Join us for this webinar to find out more.
