Understand the concept of net profit margin: Net profit margin is a financial metric that shows the percentage of net income relative to net sales. It is calculated using the formula: Net Profit Margin = (Net Income / Net Sales) × 100.
Identify the given values from the problem: Net sales = $500,000 and Net income = $50,000.
Substitute the given values into the formula: Net Profit Margin = (50,000 / 500,000) × 100.
Simplify the fraction (50,000 / 500,000) to determine the proportion of net income to net sales.
Multiply the result by 100 to express the net profit margin as a percentage.
