Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
The correct answer is Option (1) → Rs. 15,500
Only the locker rent that belongs to the current year is income of the year. The amount received includes the previous year’s arrears, which must be taken out, and the current year’s rent still to be received must be added.
Locker rent received = Rs. 17,050
Less: Outstanding for the previous year = Rs. 3,050
Add: Outstanding for the current year = Rs. 1,500
Income for the year = Rs. 17,050 − Rs. 3,050 + Rs. 1,500 = Rs. 15,500
