Answer to Problem 11E

Solution:

1.$\begin{array}{l}Assets=Liabilities+Equity\\ Cash+ Accounts+office+Land=Accounts+Mulan+\mathrm{Re}venues\\ \mathrm{Re}ceivables\sup pliespayableCapital\\ \$21,000+ \$0 +\$3,000 + \$19,000 = \$ 0 + \$43,000 + \$ 0\\ -4,000+4,000\\ \end{array}$

Explanation of Solution

Explanation f is the description of above equation effect: The company purchased land for $4,000 cash.

It shows that company has paid $4,000 in lieu of purchase of land and hence, the effect of this transaction is that the assets of the boutique are decreased by $4,000 in the form of cash and also assets in the form of land are increased by $4,000.

2.$\begin{array}{l}Assets=Liabilities+Equity\\ Cash+ Accounts+office+Land=Accounts+Mulan+\mathrm{Re}venues\\ \mathrm{Re}ceivables\sup pliespayableCapital\\ \$21,000+ \$0 +\$3,000 + \$19,000 = \$ 0 + \$43,000 + \$ 0\\ +1,000+\$1,000\end{array}$

Explanation a is the description of above equation effect: The company purchased $1,000 of office supplies on credit.

It shows that the company has purchased office supplies of $1,000 on credit and hence, the effect of this transaction is that the assets of boutique are increased by $1,000 in the form of office supplies and also liabilities in the form of accounts payable are increased by $1,000.

3.$\begin{array}{l}Assets=Liabilities+Equity\\ Cash+ Accounts+office+Land=Accounts+Mulan+\mathrm{Re}venues\\ \mathrm{Re}ceivables\sup pliespayableCapital\\ \$21,000+ \$0 +\$3,000 + \$19,000 = \$ 0 + \$43,000 + \$ 0\\ +1,900+\$1,900\end{array}$

Explanation g is the best description of above equation effect: The Company billed a client $1,900 for services provided.

It shows that the company has rendered services on credit and generated revenue of $1,900 and hence, the effect of this transaction is that the assets of boutique is increased by $1,900 in the form of accounts receivable (debtors) and also capital in the form of revenue has increased by $1,900.

4.$\begin{array}{l}Assets=Liabilities+Equity\\ Cash+ Accounts+office+Land=Accounts+Mulan+\mathrm{Re}venues\\ \mathrm{Re}ceivables\sup pliespayableCapital\\ \$21,000+ \$0 +\$3,000 + \$19,000 = \$ 0 + \$43,000 + \$ 0\\ -1,000-\$1,000\end{array}$

Explanation h describes the equation effect of the above transaction. The company has paid $1,000 cash towards an account payable.

It shows that the company paid its liability of $1,000 in cash and hence, the effect of this transaction is that the assets of boutique are decreased by $1,000 in the form of cash and also liability in the form of accounts payable is decreased by $1,000.

5.$\begin{array}{l}Assets=Liabilities+Equity\\ Cash+ Accounts+office+Land=Accounts+Mulan+\mathrm{Re}venues\\ \mathrm{Re}ceivables\sup pliespayableCapital\\ \$21,000+ \$0 +\$3,000 + \$19,000 = \$ 0 + \$43,000 + \$ 0\\ +1,900-\$1,900\end{array}$

Explanation b best describes the equation effect of above transaction: The Company collected cash $1,900 from an account receivable.

It shows that the company has received an amount of $1,900 against accounts receivable and hence, the effect of this transaction is that the assets of boutique are decreased by $1,900 in the form of accounts receivable and also assets in the form of cash are increased by $1,900.
