    -$850

    Explanation:

    The computation of the net income or loss using the cash method is shown below:

    = Received cash from customers - accrued salary expense - paid electricity bill

    = $1,870 - $2,590 - $130

    = - $850

    As we can see that the total of expenses is more than the revenue generated so it would be the net loss and the same is to be shown in a negative sign

    Hence, the net loss is of - $850
