Gross Surplus: Equals Receipts from Gaming & Related Services, plus Changes in Inventories, minus expenditure (including Compensation of Employees, Operating Expenses, Purchase of Goods, Commission Paid & Customer Rebate).
Gross Surplus Ratio: Gross Surplus divided by Receipts from Gaming & Related Services and multiplied by 100%. The higher the ratio, the more effective a sector is at converting receipts into gross surplus.
Total Expenditure: Includes Compensation of Employees, Operating Expenses, Purchase of Goods, Commission Paid & Customer Rebate, and Non- operating Expenses such as interest paid and depreciation.
