Net income is calculated by subtractingexpensesfromrevenues:

Net Income=Revenues−Expenses\text{Net Income} = \text{Revenues} - \text{Expenses}Net Income=Revenues−Expenses

For this retailer:

$250,000−$100,000=$150,000\$250{,}000 - \$100{,}000 = \$150{,}000$250,000−$100,000=$150,000

The projection of $50,000 sustained growth next year is irrelevant because the question asks specifically forlast year’snet income. Many insurance-based financial questions test the ability to isolate actual financial performance from future projections.

Options B, C, and D incorrectly combine revenue, expense, or growth figures.

Thus, the correct net income isA: $150,000.
