Profit or loss pre-and post incorporation

Accountancy

Book back question, question no.3. About gross profit ratio. Since months after incorporation is 8 months , Why did they multiply the 30% with 10 X instead of 8X

Gross profit% is applied on sales post incorporation. Post incorporation sales = 1.25x * 8 months = 10x GP = 30% of 10x = 3x
