(a) $438,000

(b) $199,900

(c) $63,200

Explanation:

(a) Manufacturing margin:

= Net sales - Variable cost of goods sold

= $912,000 - $474,000

= $438,000

(b) Contribution margin:

= Manufacturing margin - Variable selling and administrative expenses

= $438,000 - $238,100

= $199,900

(c) Income from operations:

= Contribution margin - Fixed selling and administrative expenses - Fixed manufacturing costs

= $199,900 - $54,700 - $82,000

= $63,200
