Question

The cost is 284 the operating expenses are 43 the reduced price is 299 what is the operating loss

Answer 1

28

Explanation:

operating loss is loss when value of operating loss is more than gross profit.

In the given problem

cost: 284

price : 299

profit = 299 - 284 = 15

but given that there is operating expense as well.

operating expenses = 43

as expense is greater than profit there is loss which is called operating loss.

operating loss = operating expense - profit = 43 - 15 = 28

Thus, operating loss is 28.
