Answer :

To calculate Microsoft's (MSFT) operating income for FY2022, we need to follow these steps using the given financial data:

1. Identify the revenue:
- Revenue: \[tex]$198.3 billion 2. Identify and sum up the expenses that affect operating income: - Cost of Goods Sold (COGS): \$[/tex]62.7 billion
- SG&A Expense (Selling, General, and Administrative Expense): \[tex]$27.7 billion - R&D Costs (Research and Development Costs): \$[/tex]24.5 billion

3. Calculate the operating income:
- Operating Income = Revenue - COGS - SG&A Expense - R&D Costs

Now let's fill in the values and perform the calculation:

[tex]\[ \text{Operating Income} = 198.3 - 62.7 - 27.7 - 24.5 \][/tex]

Breaking it down:
- Subtract COGS from Revenue:
[tex]\[ 198.3 - 62.7 = 135.6 \][/tex]
- Subtract SG&A Expense from the result:
[tex]\[ 135.6 - 27.7 = 107.9 \][/tex]
- Subtract R&D Costs from the result:
[tex]\[ 107.9 - 24.5 = 83.4 \][/tex]

So, the Operating Income is:

[tex]\[ \text{Operating Income} = \$83.4 \text{ billion} \][/tex]

Therefore, the correct answer is:

B. \$83.4 billion
