Answer #1

Effect of the transactions are:

1. Income tax of $60,000 represents an expense for the company. Hence, it would be deducted from the revenues in the income statement of the company.

2. The refund of income tax of $20,000 represents a reduction in the expense f the company. Therefore, it would be added to the net income of the company.

3. The payment of GST of $5,000 would be a deduction from the revenues of the company. As it is an expense for the company, it would reduce the amount of net income.

4. Payment of dividend is not an expense of the company therefore, it would not affect the income statement of the company. But it affects the balancesheet of the comppany.
