Answer:

Option (c) : $16,600

Explanation:

As per the data given in the question,

For computing the net differential income we need to do following calculations which are shown below:

Sales consideration = $26,000

Commission = $26,000×10%

= $2,600

Net income = $26,000 - $2,600

= $23,400

Lease amount = $48,000

Repair, insurance, and property tax expenses = $8,000

Net income = $48,000 - $8,000

= $40,000

Income if offer of lease accepted = $40,000

Income if equipment is sold through a broker = $23,400

Net differential income from the lease alternative =$40,000 - $23,400

= $16,600

Hence, option (c) : $16,600 is correct answer.
