Emmanuel Christian · Answer 1

D. $ 10,300

Choice D is correct: Net income = $ 10,300

Explanation:

Cash Received = $ 16000

Less Rent Paid = ($ 2000)

Add income = $ 3000

Less Salaries for the month of March = ($ 6200)

Less utilities paid ($ 500)

Net income = $ 10,300

Treatments.

Net income is found by deducting expenses from revenues earned

$ 100,000 is the retained earnings so it is not accounted for net income.

Equipment is an asset so it is not accounted for net income.

Cash received is the revenue so it is accounted.

Rent is an expense account so it is subtracted.

Income for service $ 3000 provided is also taken into account on matching principle basis.

Advance received will be adjusted when the services will be rendered on matching principle.
