Description
In inventory lineitem we have Margin and Margin Percent fields.
Actually, the calculations are
margin = price - cost
margin(%) = (price - cost) / cost
My proposal is to change to effective names of these values: profit and markup, respectively:
Margin => Profit
Margin (%) => Markup
... and, if we wanna a Margin field, we have to add a new field, calculated with
margin = (price - cost) / price
