Answer 1

Instructions are below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Selling price= $25 per unit.

Sales (in units):

January= 45,000

February= 55,000

March= 50,000

The cost of goods sold is $14 per unit.

The gross profit is calculated using the following formula:

Gross profit= selling price - cost of goods sold

January:

Sales= 45,000*25= 1,125,000

COGS= 45,000*14= (630,000)

Gross profit= 525,000

February:

Sales= 55,000*25= 1,375,000

COGS= 55,000*14= (770,000)

Gross profit= 605,000

March:

Sales= 50,000*25= 1,250,000

COGS= 50,000*14= (700,000)

Gross profit= 550,000
