Question

Wexler, Inc.’s income statement showed total expenses for the year to be $50,000. If the company’s revenues for the year were $135,000 and its year-end cash balance was $35,000, what was Wexler’s net income for the year?

Answer 1

Answer:

The Wexler’s net income for the year is $85,000

Explanation:

Net income: If the company has excess revenues over its expenses than it is term as net income otherwise it is a net loss.  

The computation of the net income is shown below:

= Total revenues - total expenses

= $135,000 - $50,000

= $85,000

The ending cash balance is not reflected in the income statement because it has come under the asset side in the balance sheet.
