Please do not type out test questions and expect to be provided with a full answer. You must have an answer in the same book in which you found the question, so ask about whatever it is in the answer that you are not clear about and then I will explain. Using the accounting equation, the capital at the end of the month is 2,000 + 1,000 + (1,500 - 600) = 3,900. The accounting equation is explained in detail in my free lectures.

The sales ae $1,500 and the costs are $600, therefore the profit is 1,500 - 600 = $900.
