Canyon Canoe Company does not typically prepare adjusting and closing entries each month, but the company is surprised at how popular the shirts are and wishes to know the net income for January and would also like to understand how to prepare the closing entries for a merchandising company. During January 2019, Canyon Canoe Company completed the following non-merchandising transactions:

Jan. 2

Collected \(4,500 on account.

15

Paid the utilities and telephone bills from December.

15

20

Received bills for utilities (\(360) and telephone (\)275) which will be paid later

23

Paid various accounts payable, \(1,800.

30

Paid employee, \)750

4Step 4: (3) Preparing Income Statement

Compute the total revenues by adding the sales revenue and canoes rental revenues.

Total Revenue=Sales Revenue+Canoe Rental Revenue=$3,701+$2,175=$5.876 

Total expense is the sum of the cost of goods sold, wages expense, utility expense, telephone expense, supplies expense, and interest expense.

Total Expense=Cost of goods sold+Wages expense+Wages expense+Utilities expense+Telephone expense+Supplies expense+Interest=$1,736+$750+$360+$275+$55+$50=$3,226

Compute the gross profit by deducting the total expenses incurred from the total revenues earned by the company.

Gross Profit=Total Revenue-Total expense=$5,876-$3,226=$2,650

6Step 6: (5) Computing gross profit percentage

Compute the gross profit by deducting the cost of goods sold incurred by the company from the total revenues earned by the company.

 Gross Profit=Total revenue-Cost of goods sold=($3,701+$2,175)-$1,736=$4,140

The gross profit percentage is computed by dividing gross profit by total revenue.

 Gross Profit Percentage=Gross ProfitTotal Revenue=$4,140$5,876=70.46%
