Formulas:

Year 1: 328,000 (sales) - 117,000 (expense) = 211,000 (profit)

Year 2: 565,000 (sales) - x (expense) = y (profit)

Net Profit: 211,000 + y = 113,000

Math

211,000 (profit y1) + 565,000 (sales y2) = 776,000

776,000 - 113,000 (net profit) = -663,000 (expenses)

Confirm:

Net Profit: 211,000 + y = 113,000 (listed in formulas, just a reminder)

Plug in: 565,000 (y2 sales) - 663,000 (our solution) = -98,000

211,000 (y1 net) + -98,000 (our plug in) = 113,000 (2 year net profit given to us)
