 Cash (+A) 1,000 
 Common stock (+SE)  1,000

b. Record the journal entry for service fee revenue:

 Accounts receivable (+A) 52,000

 Service fees revenue (+R, +SE)  87,000

Table (2)

  • Cash is an asset. There is an increase in the asset. Hence, debit cash account with $55,000.
  • Accounts receivable is an asset. There is an increase in the asset. Hence, debit accounts receivable account with $52,000.

DateAccounts title and explanationRef.Debit ($)Credit ($)
 Operating expenses (+E) (-SE) 61,000 
 Accounts payable (+L)  39,000

 (To record the payment of operating expenses)   

Table (3)

  • Operating expenses are the expense account which is a component of stockholders’ equity. There is an increase in the expense account which decreases the stockholders’ equity. Hence, debit the operating expenses with $61,000.
  • Accounts payable is a liability. There is an increase in the liability. Hence, credit accounts payable with $39,000.
  • Cash is an asset. There is a decrease in the asset. Hence, credit cash account with $22,000.

e. Record the journal entry for the payment of supplies expense:

DateAccounts title and explanationRef.Debit ($)Credit ($)
 Supplies expenses (+E) (-SE) (1) 2,500 
 Supplies (+A) 700

 (To record payment of supplies expense)   

Table (4)

  • Supplies expenses are an expense account which is a component of stockholders’ equity. There is an increase in the expense account which decreases the stockholders’ equity. Hence, debit supplies expenses with $2,500.
  • Supplies are an asset. There is an increase in the asset. Hence, debit supplies with $700.
  • Cash is an asset. There is a decrease in the asset. Hence, credit cash with $3,200.

Working note:

Calculate the amount of supplies expenses to be recorded:

Supplies expenses=Supplies purchasesSupplies at the end of the year=$3,200$700=$2,500 (1)

Other entries:

 (To record the entry for loss from theft)   

Table (5)

Explanation of Solution

Memo

From,

XYZ

To,

Person J

Company E.

Dear Sir,

Sub: Decision that is made regarding the loan.

This is to inform you that your loan amount of $100,000 has been rejected based on the below criteria:

The current business seems to be profitable and there is an adequate cash to maintain its operation even if there is any additional expense that can be managed by the company. But looking into the financial statement of the company, the expected incomes, expenses and the various cash flows of the business that is expanded would be wanted to measure the future capability of the company.

There is no sufficient security is pledged against the loan. Present market values of the various assets are insufficient for accepting it as the security for the loan. If the additional information regarding the tools and equipment are provided, then that can be accepted as the security for the loan. The investments that are made personally can be used as the security for the loan. These are some of the common requirement for starting up the small business.

If the additional information regarding the current market value of the assets and the correct financial statements are provided, then the application can be reconsidered.

Regards,

XYZ
