A. True

3. Paid-in capital is the total amount of cash and other assets the corporation receives from its stockholders in exchange for its stock.

A. True

Explanation:

Gross profit margin is calculated by dividing the gross profit by the sales and multiplying by 100.  In this case, the gross profit is $212,800 ($760,200 - $547,400).  The amount, $212,800, then divided by $760,200 and multiplied by 100 to obtain approximately 28%.

The dollar is the monetary unit for all business transactions conducted in the United States.  The accounting assumption behind the monetary unit means that all transactions conducted in the United STates are reported in dollars.
