To find the profit per puppet, you would subtract the cost per puppet from the selling price per puppet.

Cost per puppet = $1088 / 90 puppets = $12.09
Selling price per puppet = $1556 / 90 puppets = $17.29

Profit per puppet = Selling price per puppet - Cost per puppet
Profit per puppet = $17.29 - $12.09 = $5.20

Therefore, the store owner made a profit of $5.20 per puppet.
