Cevap: 47600

Cevap

The net profit of the Restaurant department is 47,600₦47,600.
To find the departmental net profit, first determine the gross profit by deducting Cost of Goods Sold (15,000+85,00020,000=80,000₦15,000 + ₦85,000 - ₦20,000 = ₦80,000) from Sales (150,000₦150,000), yielding 70,000₦70,000. Next, apportion rent using floor space ratio (600/1000×24,000=14,400600/1000 \times ₦24,000 = ₦14,400) and add direct expenses (8,000₦8,000) to get total expenses of 22,400₦22,400. Subtracting total expenses from gross profit yields a net profit of 47,600₦47,600.
