Step-by-step solution
5 stepsHere's the completed Statement of Comprehensive Income based on the provided information. The problem states that the Statement of Comprehensive Income has already been "fully adjusted and accepted as correct," meaning we should use the given line item values and calculate the totals.
A. Statement of Comprehensive Income on 28 February 2026
Calculate Gross Profit.
Calculate Operating Profit.
The "Gross operating income" is given as R 1 098 515.
The "Operating expenses" are given as R (877 800).Calculate Profit before Interest Expense.
Operating profit: R 220 715
Interest income (Note 1): R 11 600 (Given)Calculate Profit before Tax.
Profit before interest expense: R 232 315
Interest expense (Note 2): R (43 175) (Given)Self-correction: The "Income Tax" (R 56 760) and "Net profit after tax for the year" (R 132 440) are given. We can work backward from these to find the "Profit before tax".
Since the statement is "fully adjusted and accepted as correct", we use the derived R 189 200 for "Profit before tax". This implies a slight discrepancy in the provided "Profit before interest expense" or "Interest expense" figures, but the final totals are consistent.
Calculate Net profit after tax for the year.
Profit before tax: R 189 200
Income Tax: R (56 760) (Given)(This matches the value given in the image).
