Unit 2 Discussion (ACC150 – Accounting Essentials)

Anne Marie, the owner of Anne’s Beauty Salon continues to ask you questions about her financial statements:

  1. What does net income mean on the      income statement? 
  2. The income statement says that I made      $15,000 net income, but I only have 949.50 cash.  I don’t understand      why I have so much net income and so little cash.
  3. I did several haircuts during the      last week of the year and sent bills to all the customers?  When is      that counted?
  4. In December I was paid $200 in      advance for some hair coloring I will do in January next year.  My      accountant tells me that’s a liability. That does not make      sense.
