Respuesta :

Answer:

Net operating income= 341,000

Explanation:

We need to use the following structure:

Gross profit= sales - cost of goods sold

Net operating income= Gross profit - other expenses (variable and fixed)

Under the absorption costing method, the cost of goods sold incorporates the fixed overhead.

Sales= 980,000

COGS= (116,000 + 266,000)= (382,000)

Gross profit= 598,000

Fixed selling and administrative costs= (116,000)

Variable selling and administrative costs= (141,000)

Net operating income= 341,000
