Solution

The correct option is A Revenue
Goods or services rendered in exchange of cash (asset) to a customer is termed as revenue. Incremental amount over cost is termed as profit which is part of owners equity, hence owners equity increases. For example, goods worth Rs.2000 sold against cash. Cost price of the goods is Rs.1800. In such situation:
Revenue is Rs.2000
Profit is Rs.200
Cash (asset) increases by Rs.2000
Owners Equity increases by Rs.200
