a. Compute 2018 cash-basis net income.
b. Compute 2018 accrual-basis net income.

A. $33,200

B. $35,000

Explanation:

A. Computation for 2018 cash-basis net income

2018 cash-basis net income = $106,000 - $73,800

2018 cash-basis net income= $33,200

Therefore 2018 cash-basis net income is $33,200

(b) Computation for 2018 accrual-basis net income

2018 accrual-basis net income = ($106,000 - $24,200 + $39,400) - ( $73,800 - $29,100 + $41,500))

2018 accrual-basis net income= $121,200 - $86,200

2018 accrual-basis net income= $35,000

Therefore 2018 accrual-basis net income is $35,000
