Respuesta :

Answer:

c. $ 390,000

Explanation:

The gross profit is computed as follows:

Sales                                                             $ 800,000

Less: Sales discounts                                  $   (12,000)

Less: Sales return and allowances             $ ( 18,000)

Net sales                                                                                       $ 770,000                                    

Less: Cost of goods sold                                                             $ (380,000)

Gross Profit                                                                                   $ 390,000  

Gross profit is the profit of the entity after considering the net revenue and reducing the cost of goods sold therefrom. To get the net revenue/sales any discounts allowed or sales returns are adjusted.

The operating expenses are not considered as these are considered for net income purposes.
