Answer 1

a. $70,500

b. $7,500

c. $9,000

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The computation of the amount of revenue is shown below:-

Amount of revenue = Ending balance of accounts receivable + Cash collected - Beginning balance of accounts receivable

= $10,500 + $72,000 - $12,000

= $70,500

b. The computation of net income earned during the accounting period is shown below:-

Net income = Revenue generated - Expenses

= $70,500 - $63,000

= $7,500

c. The computation of amount of cash flow from operating activities is shown below:-

Net cash flow from operating activities = Cash collection - Amount paid for operating expenses

= $72,000 - $63,000

= $9,000
