Savor co. had $100,000 in accrual basis pretax income for the year. at year-end, accounts receivable had increased by $10,000 and accounts payable had decreased by $6,000 from their prior year-end balances. under the cash basis of accounting, what amount of pretax income should savor report for the year?
a. $104,000b. $84,000c. $116,000d. $96,000

B) $84,000

Explanation:

Since accounts receivable increased by $10,000, it means that the cash basis pretax income is $10,000 lower than the accrual basis pretax income. The company sold the goods or services but it hasn't received the cash them yet.  

Since accounts payable decreased by $6,000, it means that the cash basis pretax income is $6,000 lower than the accrual basis pretax income. The company acquired debt in year 1 but it paid it during year 2, therefore it used cash during year 2 to pay for debt that corresponded to year 1.

If we add both negative adjustments; (-$10,000) + (-$6,000) = -$16,000

$100,000 - $16,000 = $84,000
