Rajiv lives in San Diego and runs a business that sells pianos. In an average year, he receives $722,000 from selling pianos. Of this sales revenue, he must pay the manufacturer a wholesale cost of $422,000; he also pays wages and utility bills totaling $268,000. He owns his showroom; if he chooses to rent it out, he will receive $2,000 in rent per year. Assume that the value of this showroom does not depreciate over the year.
