Can you please check these definitions are correct for my GCSE business studies?

I have to write the definition of these words without using the words itself. E.g Raw materials, you can’t say materials that are raw.

Raw materials – An unprocessed natural product used in manufacture (or another product)

Prototype – A model/sample of a processing product.

Quality control – Making sure the standard of a product fulfills the customers need.

Profit margin – (haven’t found a way to place it yet)

Cost fee – Where a product is being sold for the same amount of money it took the seller to make/buy.

Selling fee – The amount of money a buyer must pay for a product.

Production line – (haven’t found a way to place it yet)

Thank you.

Also, if you can help me write a definition for the ones i haven’t done would be fantastic.
Sorry, raw materials end bit is meant to be *of not *or.

Yeah there right.

Profit margin is the profit made shown as a percentage

Production line is a type of production method where you can mass yield a product quickly, often with very small manual labour. Machines do most of the tasks but it depends on the product.

    Profit margin – The difference between the selling fee and the cost fee of a product.

    Production line – the chain of physical processes the raw materials are place through to yield the finished product.

    These are only suggestions. It has been a very long time in view of the fact that I studied anything like this and I by no means covered GCSE business studies.

    Regarding your definition of cost fee. I would just define it as the amount of money it took to buy or manufacture the product. I don’t reckon you need to refer to the selling fee in this definition.

    Looking at raw materials. If you buy a processed product which is a component of something you are manufacturing is that not considered a raw material? You seem to be without this possiblility in your definition but you may be right. I am probably out of touch these days.
