    Hello there, I would like to cross check my answer Use the relevant Information from the extracts to the trial balance

    Extracts from the trial balance of Arthur a limited liablity company for the year ended 30 the June 2018 shown below
    $’000 $’000
    Revenue 13800

    Cost of sales 10350

    Carriage inwards 200

    Carriage outwards 450

    Rent and rates for office building 2555

    Inventory as at 30 June

    20X8 850

    Tax-over provision in prior year
    30

    Use the relevant Information from the extracts to the trial balance

    Arthur Co’s gross profit for the year ended 30 June 20X8 is $ 3250
    ( cos=10350+200)

    Arthur Co’s profit before tax for the year ended 30 June 20X8 is calculated by taking the gross profit for the year and adjusting by $ gp – expenses ( 3250-2555)

    Your gross profit is correct.

    However, the expenses to subtract to get the net profit are 450 + 2,555.

    Tax over provision is also an expense so should we subtract that
