b) Using the balance sheet to conclude the net income is not valid because there is no net income on the balance sheet. You get the net income from the income statement and it goes on the balance sheet when you close the books for the year. Then it moves to the retained earnings segment in the balance sheet. At March 31 the balance sheet does not include the net income, thus far.

The balance sheet at March 31 is as follows:
& Stockholders Equity $34,800

c) The Grays actual net income for March is: Net income = $ 25,000 + 18,900 +(1,000 -8,000 - 800 - 1,000 - 750 -400 -100) = $ 43,900 – 10,050 = $ 33,850
