d. $225,000.

Answer 1

Answer:

c. $165,000.

Explanation:

Gross profit $1,350,000

Selling and administrative expenses $480,000

Income from continuing operations before income tax $705,000

Income from continuing operations 495,000

Total Expenses = Gross Profit - Income from continuing operations before income tax

Total Expenses = $1,350,000 - $705,000 = $645,000

Other Expenses = Total Expenses - Selling and administrative expenses

Other Expenses = $645,00 - $480,000 = $165,000
