Correct Option: A

To calculate the net profit:

1. Calculate Cost of Goods Sold (COGS):
Beginning Stock: 2200
Purchases: 18000
Ending Stock: 1000
COGS = 2200 + 18000 - 1000 = 19200

2. Calculate Gross Profit:
Sales: 27000
COGS: 19200
Gross Profit = 27000 - 19200 = 7800

3. Calculate Net Profit:
Total Expenses = 1500 + 500 + 1100 + 1300 = 4400
Net Profit = Gross Profit - Expenses = 7800 - 4400 = 3400
