    This is the question

    Sole trader – assets at the beginning of the year £186k
    assets at the end of the year £274k

    Drawings – £68k
    Additional capital – £50k

    What is his profit for the year? (please show how you worked it out) ?

    Think about it that if there is no drawing then assets at the end of year is 274+68=342
    So that difference is 342-186=156 which is increase in assets 50 against capital and 106 against profit.

    or you can say (274-186)+68-50=106
