Answer:

Operating income $4300- option c

Explanation:

Selling Price per Unit. $6

variable cost per unit. $3

Contribution per unit. $(6-3) = $3

total number of sold units  = 4000, therefore

Total contribution = 3 x 4000= 12000

fixed costs. $7700 per month

Operating income (profit). = (Total contribution -fixed costs)

                                           = (12000 - 7700) = $4300

Answer:

Correct answer is B, $4,300

Explanation:

An operating income of $4,300 for this month is computed by deducting variable cost from sales to get the contribution margin. Afterwhich, we deduct the fixed cost from the contribution margin to get the operating income. To illustrate further, see computation below:

Sales              (4,000 x $6)       $24,000

Less: variable cost (4,000 x 3) $12,000

Contribution margin                  $12,000

Less: fixed cost                          $  7,700

Operating income                     $ 4,300
