    B. $1,920,000 and 34.25%.

    Explanation:

    Novak Company

    Income Statement (Partial)

    Sales Revenue $2,920,000

    Less: Cost of goods sold

    Beginning inventory $550,000

    Add: Purchase $2,340,000

    Goods available for sale $2,890,000

    Less: Ending Inventory ($970,000)

    Cost of goods sold $1,920,000

    Gross profit $1,000,000

    We know, gross profit margin = (Gross profit : Sales Revenue) * 100

    gross profit margin = ($1,000,000 : $2,920,000) * 100

    gross profit margin = 0.3425 * 100

    Therefore, gross margin = 34.25%

    So, option B is the answer.
