ii. Total Manufacturing profit created during the period

iii. Total Manufacturing profit created during the period and realized

Answer 1

Let the selling price be 100.

Then

i.$(3300\times 100+(4200)-(4200*0.2+4200))-(85000+45000)=(330 000+4200-5040)-(130 000)=199 160$

ii.

$(3300\times 100+6000-2000-(85000+45000)=334 000-(130 000)=204 000$

iii.

$(3300\times 100+(4200)-(4200*0.2+4200))[phone]-(85000+45000)=(330 000+4200-5040+6000-2000)-(130 000)=203 160$
