Answer 1

Whitneys Juice Shop
Jan    -345
Feb   -273
Mar     315
Apr     -288
May     357
June    420

Add total profit and total loss
315 + 357 + 420 = 1,092 total profit
-345 - 273 - 288 =   -906 total loss

Net profit = total profit - total loss
net profit = 1,092 - 906
net profit = 186 Choice B.
