    A business’s bank balance increased by $750,000 during its last financial year. During the same period it issued shares of $1 million and repaid a loan note of $750,000. It purchased non-current assets for $200,000 and charged depreciation of $100,000. Working capital (other than the bank balance) increased by $575,000.

    What was its profit for the year?
    $1,175,000
    $1,275,000
    $1,325,000
    $1,375,000

    I am unaware of answer. Please help. Along with solution. Thank you sir.

    Profit = Change in net assets + Drawings – Capital introduced

    = [750,000 (cash) + 200,000 (Nca) – 100,000 (Depn] + 575,000 (WC)] + Drawings – 250,000
    = 1,175

    (assuming no drawings)
