The easiest is to write up t-accounts for each of the two properties.
For property 1, you know the opening and closing balances and you will credit the account with the 280,000 received. The missing figure is 305,700 and this is the income for the year.
For property 2, again you know the opening and closing balances and you will credit. the account with the 160,000 cash received. The missing figure on this account is then 147,900and this is the income for the year.So the total income is 305,700 + 147,900 = 453,600.
