Answer:
NET INCOME: 341,000
Explanation:
Inventory equation:
beginning inventory + purchase = COGS + ending inventory
base on your information we need to get the net purchases and COGS so:
purchases 368,000
freight-in 5,000
return and allowance -41,000
purchase discount -15,000
net purchases 307,000
Now we replace in the inventory equation with the know values
255,000 + 307,000 = COGS + 282,000
and we solve for COGS
COGS = 280,000
Now we have to determinate the net sales:
sales 850,000
sales discount -17,000
return&llowances -107,000
net sales 726,000
Finally we proceed with the net income statment
net sales 726,000
COGS -280,000
Gross Profit 446,000
operating expenses -105,000
