Table (2)
Note: Accounts payable was paid in full on October 3 and the amount of accounts payable on October 6 was 18,000 since furniture was purchased on account for $18,000.
Calculate the value of capital stock on October 6:
Capital stock = Value of capital stock on September30 + Additional capital stock sold=$50,000+$30,000=$80,000 (2)
Calculate the value of furniture on October 6:
Furniture = (Value of furniture on September30 + Purchase of furniture on October 6)=$20,000+$18,000=$38,000 (3)
Calculate the value of supplies on October 6:
Supplies = Value of supplies on September 30 + Purchase of supplies on October6=$ 3,440+$1,000=$4,440 (4)
Calculate the value of revenue on October 6:
Revenue = Reveue earned + Expenses spent for earning revenue=$5,500−$4,000=$1,000 (5)
