Gross Profit is calculated by deducting the cost of goods sold, sales return and sales discount from the sales. The operating expenses is not considered for gross profit. The same is deducted from the gross profit for finding the net profit.

Gross Profit = Sales - Cost of goods sold - Sales Return - Sales Discount

Gross Profit = $150,000 - $67,000 - $13,000 - $6,000

Gross Profit = $150,000 - $86,000

Gross Profit = $ 64,000

Thus, gross profit is $64,000

insens350 [35]

Answer:

E. Centralized Authority.

Explanation:

As Typhanie, a customer service representative with WestComm Wireless Services, was asked by one of her customers if WestComm would be interested in joining the chamber of commerce to meet potential customers and increase its contacts in the local business community. Typhanie believes this is a very good idea and approached her manager, Deondre, about becoming a chamber member. Deondre said to Typhanie, "Because the cost of membership is over $500 and you will have to leave the office to attend meetings, I will have to get approval from management above me." WestComm is an example of an organization with centralized authority.

In centralized authority, the decisions are made from the top level management or decisions are made from certain managers. Anyone can't make decisions by his or her own in this kind of management style. This system has many flaws as well. As we have seen here in this case, Typhanie is interested in going to chamber of commerce which definitely will be very good for the organisation but when she approached her manager Deondre, he said he even himself can't decide about it, he has to get the orders from his boss. Although the event can be good for the organisation but centralized decision making has made it almost impossible.
