    Cash accounting $18,000

    Accrual accounting $37,750

    Explanation:

    Under the cash accounting, all the cash expense are deemed expenses other than payments to lenders and purchase of assets, and cash revenue as revenue. So this means:

    Cash revenue include $57,000 received from customers and cash expense includes $27,250 and prepared cash expense.

    So, under cash accounting:

    Revenue $57,000

    Expense ($27,250 + $11,750) ($39,000)

    Profit $18,000

    Under Accrual accounting system, the revenues are recorded when they are earned (not when received) and expenses are recorded when they are incurred (not when paid).

    Earned revenues are $65,000 and incurred expense are $35,500. Kindly note under accrual accounting, prepaid expenses are assets (not expenses).

    So, under accrual accounting:

    Revenue $65,000

    Expense ($27,250)

    Profit $37,750
