Actual Profit (P) is equal to Actual Sales (S) minus Total Expenses (E). Given that the Margin of Safety percentage (M) of Total Sales is 25%, we can establish an equation relating the Total Sales, Break-even point and M. It would be S - $300,000 = 0.25S, since Margin of Safety is equal to Total Sales minus Break-even point. Solving for S would result to $400,000. Given that E is equal to 45% of S, E would then be equal to $180,000. Solving for P, P = $400,000 - $180,000. Therefore, P is equal to $220,000.
