Respuesta :

Answer: The correct answer is choice b - $1,965.

Explanation: The formula for gross profit is sales minus the cost of goods sold. In this case Korey has sales of $3,250, and the cost of these items was $1,285. In order to calculate the monthly gross profit you need to subtract the cost of the goods sold from the sales. $3,250 - $1,285 = $1,965.

Answer:

The answer is: B) $1,965

Explanation:

The formula for calculating gross profit is:

  • gross profit = total revenue - cost of goods sold
