Answer and Explanation:
The formula and the computation is shown below:
a. Total Assets = Total Liabilities and Owners’ Equity
Total Assets = $55,650
b. Total Assets = Cash + Accounts Receivable + Land
$55,650 = Cash + $8,600 + $16,500
Cash = $55,650 - $8,600 - $16,500
= $30,550
c. Increase in Owners’ Equity = Rob Elliot Capital on 31 December - Rob Elliot, Capital on 31 December
= $38,000 - $0
= $38,000
d. Increase in Owners’ Equity = Additional Investment during December + Net Income - Rob Elliot Drawing
= $38,000 = $35,000 + Net income - $5,750
Net income = $8,750
e. Net Income = Fees Earned - Total Expenses
$8,750 = $26,750 - Total expenses
Total expenses = $26,750 - $8,750
= $18,000
f. Total Expenses = Rent Expense + Supplies Expense + Utilities Expense + Wages Expense + Miscellaneous Expense
$18,000 = $6,400 + Supplies Expense + $4,650 + $1,265 + $460
Supplies expenses = $18,000 - $12,775
= $5,225
g. Total Liabilities and Owners’ Equity = Total Liabilities + Total Owners’ Equity
$55,650 = Total Liabilities + $38,000
Total liabilities = $17,000
Total Liabilities = Accounts Payable
Accounts Payable = $17,000
Amount owed to Creditors = Accounts Payable
Amount owed to Creditors = $17,000
