Solution

To calculate the operating profit margin, we first need to determine the operating profit. The operating profit is calculated as total sales minus cost of goods sold and operating expenses.

Here's the step-by-step calculation:

  1. Total Sales = Rs. 2,000,000
  2. Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) = Rs. 1,200,000
  3. Operating Expenses = Rs. 500,000

Operating Profit = Total Sales - COGS - Operating Expenses Operating Profit = Rs. 2,000,000 - Rs. 1,200,000 - Rs. 500,000 Operating Profit = Rs. 300,000

The operating profit margin is then calculated as (Operating Profit / Total Sales) * 100%.

Operating Profit Margin = (Rs. 300,000 / Rs. 2,000,000) * 100% Operating Profit Margin = 15%

So, the company's operating profit margin is 15%.
