Working note 1: Calculate total accounts payable settled during the year:

It is given that opening balance is $21,130, increase during the year $17,300 (for instruction expense) and $4776 (for academic expenses). Closing balance is $1,935

Accounts payable is opening balance plus increase during the year minus closing balance.

$\begin{array}{c}\text{Accounts payable}=\text{Opening balance}+\text{Increase during the year}-\text{Closing balance}\\ =\$21,130+\$17,300+\$4,776-\$1,935\\ =\$41,271\end{array}$
