Answer 1

Answer:

January $0

February = $550

March = $300

April  = $150

Step-by-step explanation:

Revenues

January $0

February 4000 x 55% = $2200

March 4000 x 30% = $1200

April 4000 x 15% = $600

Expenses

January $0

February 3000 x 55% = $1650

March 3000 x 30% = $900

April 3000 x 15% = $450

Operating Income

January $0

February 2200 - 1,650 = $550

March 1,200 - 900 = $300

April 600- 450 = $150
