Respuesta :

Answer:

$235,000

Explanation:

Under the accrual accounting system, expenses are recognized in the period incurred and not necessarily in the period cash is paid.

Revenue is also recognized in the period earned and not necessarily when cash is collected.

Total revenue in 2018 = $200,000 + $150,000

= $350,000

Net income is the difference between the revenue and expense

Net income in 2018 = $350,000 - $115,000

= $235,000
