We were asked to calculate the missing values (which I have written down on my copy of the table in the image attached). After attending the lecture with hopes to get a better understanding of how the numbers we obtained, I ended up coming home and copying the answers down as my professor did not review as to how he calculated them. I copied all the numbers down onto excel with hopes to see if I can understand where the numbers came from but to no avail. There are no requirements asked for other than to simply calculate and input the missing values which I have noted down from the answer sheet. I am hoping to get an understanding as to how the numbers were computed for the income statement for now.
