During the quarter, Robles' net sales were $759,200. What was the cost of goods sold for the quarter? What was Robles's gross profit for the quarter?

Answer 1

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

beginning inventory= $505,700

Cost of goods manufactured= $290,900

Ending inventory= $485,300

Net sales= $759,200.

To calculate the cost of goods sold, we need to use the following formula:

COGS= beginning finished inventory + cost of goods manufactured - ending finished inventory

COGS= 505,700 + 290,900 - 485,300

COGS= $311,300

Now, we can determine the gross profit:

Gross profit= net sales - COGS

Gross profit= 759,200 - 311,300

Gross profit= 447,900
