As you have learned, generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) require organizations to prepare both an income statement and a balance sheet. Before the balance sheet can be prepared, the organization’s net income must be determined. This requires the accountant to pull together data from numerous system accounts and other sources of information. In this assignment, you will demonstrate your skill in putting together the necessary account data and preparing an income statement in good form.

ANALYZING ITEMS IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENT

Resources

Balance sheets do not always balance once they are prepared, and income statements do not always contain correct account data. This can cause havoc across the accounting department and requires the accountant to locate the missing or incorrect data. Financial statement preparation will be an important skill during this process, as you will discover when you determine the missing amounts in the statement in this assignment.

Instructions

For this assignment, use the BUS3061 Assignment u02a4 Template (listed in Resources).

In each of the two sets of organization financial statement information, two items have been omitted. Determine the missing amounts and fill them in on the template to complete the financial statement information.
