ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL ENGINEERING - ANSWER 34.29 : (a) By trial and error for year 20X8, D = 100 C / A = 100 ($150) / ($400) = 37.5 %. Applying the same formula for year 20X9 will produce D = 100 C / A = 100 ($135) / ($450) = 30 %. (b) Realized gross profit = ED / 100 = $100 (37.5 / 100) = $37.5.
