I am building an Income Statement using PowerPivot. I have calculated rows for Gross Margin and Net Income. I want to add a row for Gross Margin %. i.e.:

I currently have as a running total: Revenue - Costs = Gross Margin
I want to add the following Percentage as a row: Gross Margin % = Gross Margin / Revenue.
Your help is much appreciated.
Best

Bring active cell back into view
Start at A1 and select to A9999 while writing a formula, you can't see A1 anymore. Press Ctrl+Backspace to bring active cell into view.
Well Margin as a % of gross sales is simply

= divide([Gross Margin],[Total Sales])

of course [Total Sales] has to return the correct value for this to work regardless of where it is in a pivot table. I suggest setting up your pivot table first and then add [Gross Margin] and [Total Sales] to the pivot. For the % to work, the [Gross Margin] must change for each row in the pivot, but the [Total Sales] must always return the [Total Sales]. it will likely be something like this

=CALCULATE(sum(table[value]),table[Category]="Sales") or something like that.
