Respuesta :

Answer:

net income cash-basis     8,000

income accrual-basis        7,900

Explanation:

cash revenues                32,000

salaries expense          (24,000)  

net income cash-basis     8,000

sales for the period:

beginning AR + sales - collected = ending AR

3,000 + sales - 32,000 =  5,500

sales = 34,500

salaries expense:

beginning salaries payables + salaries - paid = ending salaries payable

3,100 + salaries - 24,000 = 5,700

salaries 26,600

revenues                    34,500

salaries                      (26,600)  

income accrual-basis   7,900
