    Accounting Homework Help
    If a company sells 300 watches at $48.00 per watch and has variable cost of $ 18.00 per watch and fixed cost of $ 4,000.00. What is the projected profit?
    I need to know how to get the answer for the two (?) marks.

    Profit = Contribution Margin - Fixed Costs

    = ? ( $48 - $18 ) - $ 4,000.00
    = ? ( $30 ) - $ 4,000.00
    = $9,000 - $4,000
    = $5,000

    Your answer is correct.

    Simply:

    (300 units sold * ($48 - 18)) - $4,000 = $5,000 gross profit.
