    item of revenue expenditure as capital expenditure.
    When the error is corrected, how will her net profit and capital be affected?

    A Increased Reduced
    B Reduced Increased
    C Increased Increased
    D Reduced Reduced

    I hope the answer is B, but I’m not sure. I think it has to be B or D because revenue expenditure needs to be increased and that would reduce profits. But Im not sure about the capital.

    Anyone know for sure?

    the available answer is D that means both got decreased. But actually i want somebody to give me the answer with reasoning.

    It must be D because if profit is lower then the amount owed to the owner is lesser.
