Answer:
Operating Expenses of Current Year = $107,000
Explanation:
Provided Prepaid expenses opening = $5,000
This means this was part of current year operating expense therefore, this will be added back, to operating expenses.
Prepaid Expenses closing = $10,000
This is not part of current year expense, therefore this will be deducted, from current year operating expense.
Accrued Liability Opening = $8,000
This was liability for past year therefore will not form part of current year, and will be deducted from current operating expenses.
Accrued Liability Closing = $20,000
This is part of current year liabilities for operating expense, and thus form part of current year expense, therefore, will be added.
