Swire Travel was established on January 2012 by Clarice Keynes. Clarice is a good manager but a poor accountant. From the trial balance prepared by a part-time bookkeeper, Clarice prepared the following income statement for the quarter ended 31 March 2015.
Clarice knew that something was wrong with the statement because profit had never exceeded P200,000 in any one quarter. Knowing that you are an experienced accountant, she asks you to review the income statement and other data.
You first look at the trial balance. In addition to the account balances reported above in the income statement, the ledger contains the following additional selected balances as at 31 March 2015
| Supplies |
P 62,000 |
| Prepaid Insurance |
P 72,000 |

1. Booking fees include advanced rentals for summer month occupancy P200,000.
2. There were P13,000 of supplies on hand as at 31 March.
3. Prepaid insurance resulted from the payment of a 1-year policy on 1 January 2015.
