The answer is D Mr. Jones variable expenses total $2016 and do not exceed 38% of his monthly income.

Answer with explanation:

Monthly income of Mr.Jones= $ 5,600

Fixed Expense of Mr.Jones = $ 2,912

Net income of  Mr. Jones =12 % of monthly income

12% of 5600

[tex]\frac{12}{100}\times 5600=672[/tex]

→Net Income = Total Income - Total Expense

         672  =5600 - Variable expense -Fixed Expense

→Variable Expense = 5600 -672-2912

                          =5600- 3584

                          = $ 2016

→38% of $ 5600

    [tex]\frac{38}{100}\times 5600=2128[/tex]

→2128>2016

38% of $ 5600 > Variable Expense

Option D: Mr. Jones's variable expenses total $2,016 and do not exceed 38% of his monthly income.
