Answer:
$744,000
Explanation:
The computation of the gross profit is shown below:
But before that determine the cost of goods sold which is
Cost of goods sold is
= Opening finished goods balance + cost of goods manufactured - ending finished goods balance
= $35,500 + $515,000 - $40,500
= $510,000
now the gross profit is
= Sales - cost of goods sold
= $1,254,000 - $510,000
= $744,000
