    Net profit = $87675

    Explanation:

    An income statement is one of the three important financial statements used for reporting a company's financial performance over a specific accounting period. The income statement focuses on the four key items - revenue, expenses, gains, and losses. It does not cover receipts (money received by the business) or the cash payments/disbursements (money paid by the business).

    It follows the general structures:

    Revenues (+)

    Operating Revenue

    Non-Operating Revenue

    Total

    Expenses (-)

    Primary Activity Expenses

    Secondary Activity Expenses

    Total

    Gains (+)

    Losses (-)

    Net income/loss

    In this exercise:

    Total revenues=$236000

    Expenses:

    salaries=$111000

    Advertising=$9725

    Interest=7700

    Total Expenses=$128425

    Taxes = $19900

    Net profit = $87675

    Note: dividends shouldn't be included in the Income Statement
