SARASOTA CORP.

Comparative Income Statement

For the Years Ended December 31  

                                        2020                  2019             Increase

Net sales                   $588,000             $490,000       $98,000

Cost of goods sold     449,820                402,780          47,040

Gross Profit                   138,180                  87,220         50,960

Net income               $ 52,920               $ 40,670          12,250

Net Sales increase = $98,000/$490,000 * 100 = 20%

Cost of goods sold = $47,040/$402,780 * 100 = 11.68%

Gross profit = $50,960/$87,220 * 100 = 58.43%

Operating expenses = $38,710/$46,550 * 100 = 83.16%

Net Income = $12,250/$40,670 * 100 = 30.12%
