The remaining increase in total net sales of $4.7 million was because of an increase in the average transaction value, driven by higher average retail sales on a per unit basis due to the favorable customer response to the use of more vintage prints in its garments.2.Gross ProfitGross profit, which represents net sales less cost of sales, increased from $28 million in fiscal 2005 to $30.4 million in fiscal 2006; an increase of $2.4 million, or 8.6 percent.Cost of sales includes expenses incurred to acquire and produce inventory for sale, such as product costs, freight-in and import costs, and direct labor costs for Sassy Spa employees.
