Assignment 1st | Financial Accounting

Read Instructions Before Start an Assignment:


Assignment Have divided into 3 Part and compulsory to attempt all parts.
It has covered the Week 1 to week 3 Learning Concepts.

(Part 1st)

1) Solve Accounting Equation


Fill in the missing information below and write down the analysis (i.e., Explain the application of
accounting equation)
Assets Liabilities Shareholders’ Equity
Business #1 $393,000 $181,000 $212,000
Business #2 $74,800 $38,600 $ 36200
Business #3 $30,000 $21,400 $8,600
Business #4 $25,000 $33,800 (8,800)*
Business #4’s equity is in an accumulated deficit position.

Analysis:

*Business-1:The accounting equation is already balanced in this case. Liabilities ($181,000) and
shareholders' equity ($212,000) add up to a total asset value of $393,000. Therefore, it shows that the
business has enough assets to pay off its debts and the investment made by shareholders.

*Business-2:As per the analysis, the shareholder's equity of the business is $36,200. Therefore, it
represents the value of assets the business has after reducing liabilities and indicates the interest of
ownership in the company.

*Business-3: The sum of liabilities and shareholders' equity equals the total assets of $30,000.
Therefore, the accounting equation could be considered balanced.

*Business-4: The shareholders' equity is negative equity of (8,800), a deficit. Therefore, the
corporation has negative equity as its liabilities exceed its assets.
Assignment 1st | Financial Accounting

Fill in the missing information below and write down the analysis (i.e., Explain the application of
accounting equation)
Assets Liabilities Shareholders’ Equity
Business #1 $1,40,000 80,000 60,000
Business #2 1,250,000 $1,50,000 1,100,000
Business #3 75,000 48,500 $26,500
Business #4 52,000 $59,600 (7,600) *
Business #4’s equity is in an accumulated deficit position.

Analysis:
*Business-1:The business's assets are equal to the sum of the values of liabilities and shareholder's
equity, which shows that there are enough assets within the company. Therefore, we can say that the
accounting equation is balanced.

*Business-2: The assets of 1,250,000 equal the sum of liabilities and shareholders’ equity.
Consequently, we can say that the above equation is balanced.

*Business-3: The shareholders’ equity of $26,500 equals a deduction of liabilities from assets.
Therefore, the above equation is balanced.

*Business-4: The shareholders’ equity is (7600), a deficit. Liability has exceeded the value of the sum
of assets and shareholders’ equity.

1 A business has $250,000 total liabilities. At start-up, the owners invested $500,000 in the
business. Unfortunately, the business has suffered a cumulative loss of $200,000 up to the
present time. What is the amount of its total assets at the present time?
Solve It:
ANS:
Total Liabilities a business has= $250,000
Opening capital= $500,000
Cumulative loss= $200,000
Closing capital= $300,000
Assets= Liability+ Owner's Equity
=$250,000+300,000
= $550,000
Therefore, the total assets the company has in present time is $550,000

2 A business has $485,000 total liabilities and $1,200,000 total owners’ equity. What is the
amount of its total assets?
Solve It:
ANS:
Assignment 1st | Financial Accounting

Total liabilities= $485,000


Total owners' equity= $1,200,000
Total assets= $1,685,000

3 A business has $175,000 total liabilities. At start-up, the owners invested $250,000 capital. The
business has earned $190,000 cumulative profit since its creation, all of which has been retained
in the business. What is the total amount of its assets?
Solve It:
ANS:
Total liabilities=$175,000
Opening Capital= $250,000
Cumulative profit=$190,000
Closing Capital= $440,000
Asset=Liabilities+Shareholders' equity
Assets= 175,000+$440,000
=$615,000
