Merchandising: Computing income statement amounts

In this exercise you are being asked to compute Net Sales (Net Revenues), Gross Profit, and Net Income. Below are the formulas and the computations of each of the required elements.

Net Sales = Sales – Discounts – Returns and Allowances.
  = $127,900 – $3,900 – $2,900
  = $121,100

= $65,600

Net income = Gross profit – Operating expenses

In order to find Net Income, we first must determine Total Operating Expenses.
