Looking at the P&L we can see Total Income for the month was $136,356.  This includes Shopify sales of $37.5k, Amazon sales of $68k, and 7th Tradition of $28.6k.  Book sales increased $20.5k, while 7th Tradition contributions decreased $1.5k from the prior month.  The prior month total income was $120k.  Therefore, Total Income increased by $16,130, or 13.4% from the prior month.

The combined Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) was $74,329 which was more than the prior month’s $62,897 COGS due to the increase in sales. This left WSO a Gross Profit of $62,028 before expenses.

WSO Expenses on the P&L include payroll, overhead and operating expenses. Overall WSO Total Expenses were $40,420 this month, which were lower than the prior month by $4,248. This resulted from a small decrease as compared with the prior month in Professional Fees, Inventory Adjustments, and Travel Expenses. After deducting the expenses from the Gross Profit WSO was left with a net income of $21,607 for the month.
