Preparation of Accounts

Income Statement

After the extraction of the trial balance, the income statement is prepared.

In this question, cost of good sold is not determined as the entity is a service business. So the profit is equal to income -operating expenses.

Also,the depreciation rate is  not given, so no depreciation is required to be calculated as such the opening value of the assets equals their closing value at the end of the month. In a case where depreciation rate is given, the depreciation will be charged against the individual value and the depreciation amount taken to income statement.

Statement of owner`s equity.

The owner`s equity at the end of the period equals opening equity + profit after tax for the year - drawings from the business.

Opening equity (60% of $50,000) + Profit for the year ($4,400) - drawing( 5500) =$28,900.

Balance Sheet

The balances of assets and liabilities from the trial balance prepared is taken to balance sheet, with inclusion of owner`s equity at the end of the period.
