A.

Doonal’s Sales in 2008 = Unit sales price x No. of units sold

                     = $ 27.5 x 2 x 10,000 = $ 550,000

B.

Doonal’s Gross profit in 2008 = (Sales price – Purchase price) x No. of units sold

                                     = ($ 55 - $ 27.5) x 10,000

                                     = $ 27.5 x 10,000 = $ 275,000

C.

Doonal’s Sales in 2009 = Cost of goods sold + Profit

                        = $ 225,000 + $ 200,000 = $ 425,000

D.

Doonal’s Gross profit percentage in 2009 = (Gross profit/Sales) x 100

                                          = ($ 200,000/$ 425,000) x 100

                                          = 0.470588235 x 100 = 47.06 %
