Explanation:

For preparing the income statement, first, we have to compute the net income/net loss for the given period. The calculation is shown below:

= Consulting revenue - rent expense - salaries expense - telephone expense - miscellaneous expense

= $16,540 - $4,300 - $7,740 - $850 - $670

= $2,980

Since for computing the net income/ net loss we have to deduct the expenses from the income/ revenge earned to find out the net income (Revenue - expenses) and for net loss, the reverse method is used (Expenses - revenues)

The preparation of the income statement is done in the spreadsheet. Please find the attachment.
