Please explain the meaning of following adjustment
The incremental profits earned by S ltd for the period Jan 09 to March 09 over that earned in the corresponding period 2008 is Rs 60000. Does it mean its the total profit earned for the three months or corresponding previous year profit + 60000= total profit earned for the three months.
In the answer, to arrive at the Profit earned till March 09, they have added the incremental profit to the profit as on 31st Dec 08. Is it correct?
