Answer 2

Answer: Option 'C' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Total income from services = $30,700

Direct expenses incurred by her = $10,500

Operating expenses incurred by her = $500

We need to find the net profit.

Since we know that direct expenses and operating expenses are the expenditures which should be deducted from her income.

So, Net profit = Income - Direct Expenses - Operating Expenses

$Net\ profit=\ 30,700-\ 10,500-\ 500\\\\Net\ profit=\ 19,700$

Hence, Option 'C' is correct.
