    2015 - $24,000

    2016 - $0

    Explanation:

    The computation of profit for each year is shown below:

    For 2015:

    The profit = Service revenue - expenses incurred

    = $72,000 - $48,000

    = $24,000

    For 2016:

    There is no transaction to record under the accrual basis of accounting. So, the profit is zero

    As in accrual basis of accounting, whether cash is received or not the transaction should be reported in the books of accounts
