Periodic communications from the top noted that the sales team had been exceeding targets throughout the year, which led to steady production activity to keep pace.

The production crew had been managing costs well but wasn't sure where final costs would land with the sales volume higher than planned. The following information outlines actual and budgeted results for the year. Did the company hit its target profit margin? (Round answers to 2 decimal places, e.g. 15.25\%.)
