**Gross profit = Revenue Cost of Sales only** = $500,000 $320,000 = **$180,000 → B**
The trick here is that **Other Income is not included in gross profit**. It gets added _after_ gross profit is calculated. This is a common exam trap — they give you extra numbers to see if you'll throw them in too early.
