A Level Accounting (9706)•9706/13/O/N/18

Explanation
Profit calculation requires opening capital, which is missing
Steps:
- Calculate net assets (owner's capital) at end of Year 1: non-current assets 1,000 = $10,000.
- Calculate net assets at end of Year 2: 2,000 = $14,000.
- Profit = closing capital - opening capital + drawings; opening capital at start of Year 1 is not provided.
- Without opening capital for Year 1, profit for Year 1 cannot be determined.
Why D is correct:
- Not applicable; calculation yields $7,000 only for Year 2 profit using Year 1 closing as opening.
Why the others are wrong:
- A: $1,000 matches Year 1 net current assets, irrelevant to profit.
- B: $4,000 matches increase in net assets from Year 1 to Year 2, ignores drawings.
- C: $5,000 matches Year 1 drawings, not profit.
