a) Comparative Income Statement Analysis:
2020:
Revenue: $800
Cost of Sales: $2,400
Gross Profit: $800 - $2,400 = -$1,600
Selling Expenses: $80
Admin Expenses: $120
Operating Income: (-$1,600) - $80 - $120 = -$1,800
Interest: $600
Earning Before Tax: (-$1,800) + $600 = -$1,200
Tax: Not provided
2021:
Revenue: $1,500
Cost of Sales: $1,875
Gross Profit: $1,500 - $1,875 = -$375
Selling Expenses: $25
Admin Expenses: $20
Operating Income: (-$375) - $25 - $20 = -$420
Interest: $60
Earning Before Tax: (-$420) + $60 = -$360
Tax: Not provided
Comparative Income Statement Analysis:
Both in 2020 and 2021, Azua Corporation incurred losses with negative operating incomes. The net loss decreased from -$1,200 in 2020 to -$360 in 2021. However, without information about the tax expenses, we cannot determine the after-tax income.
b) Comparative Position Statement Analysis:
2020:
Total Assets: $3,200 ($100 + $150 + $2,500 + $75 + $100 + $1,200)
Total Liabilities: $1,500 ($600 + $150 + $300 + $450)
Equity: $1,700 ($3,200 - $1,500)
2021:
Total Assets: $4,150 ($150 + $800 + $2,400 + $100 + $150 + $1,500)
Total Liabilities: $1,950 ($600 + $600 + $150 + $300 + $300)
Equity: $2,200 ($4,150 - $1,950)
Comparative Position Statement Analysis:
