Answer:

$89,460

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the net income is shown below:

Sales $260,000

Less: Cost of goods sold -$90,000

Gross margin $170,000

Less:

Salaries -$13,000

Insurance payment -$3,000 ($6,000 ÷ 2 years)

Interest -$4,900

profit before tax $149,100

Less: tax expense -$59,640

Net income $89,460

We simply deducted all expenses from the revenues so that the net income could arrive and the same is to be considered
