The presentation is presented below:

Particulars 3/31/21 6/30/21 9/30/21 12/31/21

Property taxes $270,000 $270,000 $270,000 $270,000

Repairs $900,000 $900,000 $900,000

Total $270,000 $1,170,000 $1,170,000 $1,170,000

The property taxes is divided into four quarters i. e

= $1,080,000 : 4 quarters

= $270,000

While the repairs are divided into 3 quarters i. e

= $2,700,000 : 3 quarters

= $900,000
