    b. $11,250

    Explanation:

    We are asked to know the gross profit:

    gross profit: sales revenue - COGS

    in this case sales revenue 1,000 units x $ 30 = 30,000

    for COGS we will calculate with weighted average based on the sales price:

    3,000 x 30 + 7,000 x 10 = 90,000 + 70,000 = 160,000

    the cost of 160,000 dollars of sale is 100,000

    we cross multiply for 30,000:

    100,000 / 160,000 x 30,000 = 18,750 cost

    now we solve for gross profit:

    sales 30,000 - cost 18,750 = 11.250
