                                                  Income statement

sales                                                   $39900\times 199 \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ 7940100$

The less average cost of variable $39900\times 139 \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ 5546100$

margin for contribution                                                                       $2394000$

Lesser fixed costs                                                                                  $629000$

Income from of the company or tax                                                   $1765000$

Lower-income tax by $25\%$                                                                      $441250$  

after-tax revenue                                                                                    $1323750$
