A Level Accounting (9706)•9706/12/M/J/25
Question 31 from 9706/12/M/J/25

Explanation

Net impact of adjustments on profit or loss Steps:

  • Identify each adjustment's nature (income or expense) and amount.
  • Classify as increasing (+) or decreasing (-) profit based on type.
  • Sum all: +400income,−400 income, -400income,−63 expense, -300expense,+300 expense, +300expense,+26 income.
  • Net total: 400−400 - 400−63 - 300+300 + 300+26 = $63 income.

Why the correct option is correct:

  • Adjustments to profit or loss are aggregated by net effect, per IAS 1 presentation standards, resulting in $63 net income.

Why the others are wrong:

  • A: Ignores income adjustments, only netting expenses.
  • C: Treats net as expense, reversing income/expense signs.
  • D: Miscalculates total as gross rather than net.

Final answer: B

Topic: Preparation of financial statements
