Answer 1

$5,340

Step-by-step explanation:

Gayne's corporation contribution margin ratio is 18%

= 18/100

= 0.18

The fixed monthly expenses is $51,000

The company sales for the month is $313,000

Therefore, the net operating income can be calculated as follows

= (Contribution margin ratio×sales)-fixed expenses

= (0.18× $313,000)- $51,000

= $56,340-$51,000

= $5,340

Hence the best estimate of the company's net operating income is $5,340
