Solutions
Expert Solution
1) Rank of the company's fiscal quarters is highlighted in the table given below:
2) Revenue of September = (Total Revenue of Sept - Total Revenue of Aug) = $ 25000
Expenses of September = (Total Expenses of Sept - Total Expenses of Aug) = $ 15000
Income for the month of September = Revenue of Sept - Expenses of Sept = $10000
3) Revenue of July and August = Total Revenue of 3rd quarter - Revenue of September = $ 5000
Expenses of July and August = Total Expenses of 3rd quarter - Expenses of September = ($40000 - 15000) = $25000
Loss incurred in July and August = Expenses of July and August - Revenue of July and August = ($25000 - $5000)
Loss incurred in July and August = $20000
4) Profitability in the first two months of the third quarter is different from the last month of the third quarter because in July and August the firm's expenses were greater than its revenue. On the other hand, in the month of September, the revenue is greater than expenses.
