Explanation / Answer

2. Net income = (sales - costs - depreciation - interest)*(1-tax rate)

Thus net income = $10,044

3. We will first compute net income earned during the year.

Retained earnings balance at the end of the year = opening balance+net income - dividends

= 18670+10827.30-950

= $28,547.30

Sales 609,600.00 less: costs 548,150.00 EBITDA 61,450.00 less: depreciation 35,100.00 EBIT   26,350.00 less: interest 12,400.00 PBT 13,950.00 less: tax @ 28% 3,906.00 Net income 10,044.00
