    Answer: $92,880

    Explanation:

    The Gross Profit can be calculated by simply removing the cost from the sales amount.

    It is stated that the additional processing will yield 10,000 bags of Premium Green and 3,600 bags of Green Deluxe, which can be sold for $7.55 and $5.55 per bag.

    Sales figure is therefore,

    = (10,000 * 7.55) + (3,600 * 5.55)

    = 75,500 + 19,980

    = $95,480

    Subtracting the cost to get,

    = 95,480 - 2,600

    = $92,880

    The total gross profit would is $92,880.
