Explanation / Answer

Assets 575075

Less: Liabilities           278902

Less: Capital 314115 (266173+47942)

Plus:Dividend            0

Net LOSS: 17942

[Note:capital = opening capital+Additional capital

=266173+47942]

Opening capital=opening assets-opening liabilities=495075-228902=266173

Assets                           705075

Less: Liabilities           378902

Less:Capital 320974 (296173+24801)

Plus: Dividend           27097

Net income 32296

[Note: Capital=opening capital for year 2016+additional capital

=296173+24801

opening capital=opening assets-opening liabilities=575075-278902=296173

Note:Dividend is added in calculation of Net income because profit in the balance sheet is after deduction of dividend and for calculation of income in income statement we should add it back.]
