Answer 1

Answer:

Company X:

Sales :

= Gross Profit + Cost of goods sold

= 245 + 330

= $575

Operating expenses:

= Gross profit - Net income

= 245 - 30

= $215

Company Y

Gross profit:

= Sales - Cost of goods sold

= 1,270 - 790

= $480

Net income:

= Gross profit - Operating expenses

= 480 - 525

= $(45)

Company Z

Operating expenses :

= Gross profit - Net income

= 525 - (-20)

= 525 + 20

= $545

Cost of goods sold:

= Sales - Gross profit

= 970 - 525

= $445
