Sales revenue   - (16,800 ×59)=      991,200

Variable costs :

(12 +14+3) × 16,800                 =       (487,200)

Contribution                                      504,000

Fixed overhead                                 (140,000)

Operating expense                          (230,000)

Net Income                                         134,000
