Alpaca Corporation had revenues of $300,000 in its first year of operations. The company has not collected on $20,000 of its sal
madam [21]

Answer: Option (b) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Revenues = $300,000

Merchandise it purchased = $75,000

Salaries paid = $14,000

Owners invested = $23,000

Borrowed on a five-year note = $23,000

Interest paid = $3,000

Paid for a two-year insurance policy = $6,800

Income tax rate = 9%

Gross Margin = Revenues - Cost of Goods Sold

                       = $300,000 - $75,000

                       = $225,000

Profit before tax = Gross Margin - Salaries - Insurance payment - Interest

                          = $225,000 - 14,000 - 3,400 - 3,000

                          = $204,600

Net Income = Profit before tax - Tax at 9%

                    = $204,600 - 18,414

                    = $186,186
