Last month, sales in the following categories were: Promotional items ($1,401 with returns of $214 and discounts of $159), Staple items ($2,306 with returns of $178), All other items ($2,298 with returns of $56). The total square footage of the selling space is 5,000 square feet. Compute the sales per square foot of selling space.

Respuesta :

Sales per square foot equals Net Sales divided by the Total Square Foot.

Net Sales equals Gross sales minus any returns and discounts.

Promotional Items

1401 - 214 (returns) - 159 (discounts) = Promotional Items Net Sales

Once you have your Net Sales for ALL the categories, add them together and divide that number by the total square foot of the space (5,000). This will give you Sales per square foot.
