    The $400 is the net profit.

    Explanation:

    For computing the net profit we apply the equation which is shown below:

    Net profit = Sales - variable cost - fixed cost

    where,

    Sales is $1,000

    Variable cost = variable cost per unit * number of unit = $40 * 10 = $400

    And we know that sales - variable cost = contribution

    So, contribution would be $1000 - $400 = $600

    And, the fixed cost is $200

    So, the profit would be = Contribution - fixed cost

    = $600 - $200

    = $400

    Hence, the $400 is the net profit.
