Answer:

The correct option is d. $183,450.

Step-by-step explanation:

The multiple-step income statement can be described as an income statement that shows gross profit which is net sales revenue minus the cost of goods sold, and separates an organization's operating revenues and operating expenses from its nonoperating revenues, nonoperating expenses, gains, and losses.

The multiple-step income statement is different from a single-step income statement which only employs just one equation to determine profits by simply deducting total revenue from total expenses.

Slattery Corporation's Net income for 2019 can be determined by preparing its Multi-Step Income Statement for 2019 as follows:

Slattery Corporation

Multi-Step Income Statement

For the Year Ended December 31, 2019

Particulars $ $

Sales revenue 3,425,000

Cost of goods sold (1,611,000)

Gross profit 1,814,000

Operating expenses:

Selling expense (782,000)

General and administrative expense (585,700)

Total operating expenses (1,367,700)

Interest income 18,400

Restructuring costs (112,000)

Total other expenses and income (201,700)

Income before tax 244,600

Therefore, the correct option is d. $183,450.
