(Round your answer to the nearest whole​ dollar.)

Answer 1

Answer:

The operating income for the​ year is $190,000

Explanation:

The Computation of the operating income is shown below:

= Sales revenue - cost of good sold -  Selling and Administrative Expenses

where,

Sales revenue is $577,000

The cost of good sold = Beginning Merchandise Inventory  + Purchases​ (excluding Freight​ In) + Freight In - Ending Merchandise Inventory

= $45,000 + $300,000 + $15,000 - $42,000

= $318,000

And, the Selling and Administrative Expense is $69,000

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the value would equal to

= $577,000 - $318,000 - $69,000

= $190,000
