Assume the marketing department has presented a plan to increase advertising expenses by $330 million. It
expects this plan to result in an increase in both net sales and cost of goods sold of 20%. (Hint: Increase both sales
revenue and sales returns and allowances by 20%.) (Assume a tax rate of 34%, and round all amounts to whole
dollars.)
Prepare a multiple-step income statement. Report Net Sales without explicitly showing Sales Revenue and Sales
Returns and Allowances individually on the income statement. ((RRoouunndd aannssw
