Tesco's latest trading profit: What your trade investment is now worth to Tesco UK

Given all the recent big numbers coming from the UK’s No.1 retailer, your £10k trade investment may seem paltry….

If, however, it is being treated like a pittance, it might be worth pointing out that, based on its latest UK trading margin* of 1.1%, £10k is equivalent to ex VAT sales of £909k…

A point to ponder over the long weekend?

*...52 weeks ended 28th Feb. 2015 - UK Sales ex VAT = £43,573m, Trading profit = £467m.
£10k = 1.1% of equivalent sales i.e. £10k/1.1 x 100
