Question

MeasuresPenno Corporation recorded service revenues of $200,000 in 2017, of which $170,000 were on credit and $30,000 were for cash. Moreover, of the $170,000 credit sales for 2017, Penno collected $20,000 cash on those receivables before year-end 2017. The company also paid $25,000 cash for 2017 wages. Its employees also earned another $20,000 in wages for 2017, which were not yet paid at year-end 2017. Compute the company’s net income for 2017.

Answer 1

Answer:

$155,000

Explanation:

Given that,

Service revenues in 2017 = $200,000

Credit sales for 2017 = $170,000

Company also paid cash for 2017 wages = $25,000

Wages for 2017 not paid yet in cash = $20,000

Therefore,

Net income for 2017:

= Service revenues in 2017 - Cash paid for wages - Wages not paid yet in cash

= $200,000 - $25,000 - $20,000

= $155,000

Hence, the company’s net income for 2017 is $155,000.
