ANALYZE WHAT IS THE AMOUNT OF TOTAL ASSETS AFTER ALL TRANSACTIONS HAVE BEEN RECORDED?

Answer:

Assets = Liabilities + Shareholders' Equity

Balance Sheet Summary:

**Beginning of June

Assets = Liabilities + Shareholders’ Equity

$134,060 (Assets) = $134,060 (Liabilities + Shareholders’ Equity)

$31,760 (cash) + $14,400 (Accounts Receivable) + $87,900 (Property, Plant, & Equip: $33,800 - office furniture & $54,100 – auto)

=

$8,200 (accounts payable) + $101,700 (owner’s equity) + $24,160 (retained earnings = 42780 - 18620)

$134,060 = $134,060

**After Transactions

Assets = Liabilities + Shareholders’ Equity

$147,370 (Assets) = $147,370 (Liabilities + Shareholders’ Equity)

$33,380 (cash) + $23,050 (Accounts Receivable) + $90,940 (Property, Plant, & Equip)

=

( $2,440) (accounts payable) + $101,700 (owner’s equity) + $48,110 (retained earnings)

$147,370 = $147,370
