    a. $134,546

    Explanation:

    proceeds from long coat

    $719 x 820 = 589,580

    variable cost

    $435 x 820 = (356,700)

    fixed cost (23,100)

    Operating Income before Amortization and taxes

    209780

    - 10,400 depreciation

    199380

    67,789.2 income tax expense (tax rate 34% x 199380.2)

    Net Operating Income 131,590.8

    + 10,400 Non monetary expense (depreciation)

    -7444.8 Opportunity Cost

    134,546

    opportunity cost:

    (1,040 - 1,120)

    ↓80 units of leather jackets

    (369-228) x80 = (11,280) (1-tax) = (7444.8)
