Answer:

27%

Explanation:

The computation of the net profit margin is shown below;

As we know that

net profit margin = Net profit ÷ sales

where

net profit is

<u>Particulars                                                                 Amount </u>

Sales (200 customers × $12 × 350 days) $840,000

Less: cost of goods sold (200 customers × $4.50 × 350 days) -$315,000

Gross profit $525,000

Less:

Selling and admin expense -$98,510

Depreciation expense - $20,000

Bank loan interest -$76,265

Net income before tax $330,225

Less tax at 32% -$105,672

Net income after tax $224,553

Now the net profit margin is

= $224,553 ÷ $840,000

= 27%
