Answer:
57.5%
Explanation:
Data Provided:
Total Sales =  $ 200,000 
The net income = $ 100,000 
Depreciation = $ 20,000 
Interest = $ 10,000 
Taxes = $ 5,000
Now, 
the operating profit is the from the income before the taxes and interest. Thus, 
the interest and taxes will be included in the net income for the operating profit
therefore,
The operating profit = income + Interest + Taxes
or
The operating profit = $ 100,000 + $ 10,000 + $ 5,000 = $ 115,000
Now, 
the operating profit margin = ( Operating profit / Sales ) × 100
or
= ( $ 115,000 / $200,000 ) × 100 = 57.5%

Answer:
E) $2,400
Explanation:
optimal order quantity = sqrt{(2*D*S)/H}
                                      = sqrt{(2*36,000*$80)/$4}
                                      = $1,200
number of orders per year = $36,000/$1,200
                                              = $30
total ordering cost = $30*$80
                                = $2,400
Therefore, The total ordering cost of inventory is $2,400.
