    There are several of ways to calculate NI depending on the information available.

    1. Sales – Total costs
    2. Dividends + Additional retained earnings
    3. Sales * Profit margin
    4. New retained earnings – Old retained earnings


    In your case we will calculate the NI as follow:

    Sales * Profit margin
    = 27,000,000 * 0.08
    = 2,160,000

    Good luck :)
