Solution

The correct option is C Matching
Here, the Matching concept has been followed which states that the revenue of the period should be matched with the respective expenses.
In this example: Revenue is 600,000
Total expenses are
Purchases with respect to revenue = 500,000 x 9/10 = 450,000
Net expenses for the year = 25000
Total expenses = 475,000
Profit for the year = 600,000 - 475000 = 125,000
If the company would have reported the profit as 125000 then it would be correct.
Not doing so, the company have violated the Matching Concept.
