Net sales = $4,885,340

Cost of goods sold = (2,942,353 )

Selling expenses = (884,685 )

Operating income = $1,058,302

Interest expense = $(55,240 )

Earnings before income taxes = $1,003,062

Income tax expense = $(401,225 )

Net income = $ 601,837

EBIT = Net income + Income tax expense + Interest expense

        = $1,003,062 + $401,225 + $55,240

        = $1,058,302
