Solution

The correct option is C Matching concept
As per Matching Concept, While calculating the net profit, expenses of the particular duration should be deducted from the respective revenue.
Here, the revenue = 18,00,000
and Purchase for the year = 15,00,000 x 4 / 5 = 12,00, 000
Expenses for the year = 270000 - 15000 (adv. salaries) - 5000 (electricity) = 250000
Therefore, Net Profit = 18,00,000 - 12,00,000 - 250000
= 3,50,000
