Required:
1. Calculate the net operating cash flow for years 1 and 2 and determine the amount of receivables from clients that the firm would show in its year 1 and year 2 balance sheets prepared according to the accrual accounting model.
2. Prepare an income statement for each year according to the accrual accounting model.

Income statement for year 1

Service revenue                                       $180,000

Operating expenses:

Net income                                                 $43,000

Income statement for year 2

Service revenue                                       $230,000

Operating expenses:

Net income                                                 $85,500

Year 1 accounts receivable balance = $180,000 - $155,000 = $25,000

Year 2 accounts receivable balance = $230,000 - $185,000 + $25,000 = $70,000

Cash flows from operating activities year 1:

Net income $43,000

Adjustments to net income:

Increase in accounts payable $5,000

Increase in accounts receivable ($25,000)

Increase in prepaid insurance ($39,000)
