sales revenue                                 $16,500

COGS                                              <u>($9,300)</u>

Gross profit                                      $7,200

Operating exp.:

  • Administrative $950
  • Depreciation $1,300
  • Shipping $412.50             <u>($2,662.50)</u>

Net income                                 $4,537.50

net income increased by $4,537.50 - $3,000 = $1,537.50
