    Gross Profit = $304,050

    Operating expenses = $162,050

    Explanation:

    The computation of gross profit and operating expenses is shown below:-

    Net purchases = Purchase - Purchase discounts - Purchase returns and allowances

    = $505,500 - $7,250 - $3,500

    = $494,750

    Cost of goods sold = Net purchases + Freight-in + Inventory + Ending inventory

    = $494,750 + $4,100 + $56,000 - $66,000

    = $488,850

    Gross profit = Net sales - Cost of goods sold

    = ($810,000 - $5,100 - $12,000) - $488,850

    = $304,050

    Operating expenses = Gross profit - Net income

    = $304,050 - $142,000

    = $162,050
