How to solve a basic accounting equation?
Here is an example using the formula Assets = Liabilities + Equity or Capital Problem: Find out how accounting equation is calculated after taking into consideration each of the following transactions in the books of Mr. A
Started business with capital $100,000
Solution Capital (100,000) + Liabilities (0) = Assets (cash = 100,000)
Bought furniture $25, 000
Solution Capital (100,000) + Liabilities (0) = Assets (Cash = 75,000 + Furniture = 25,000)
Bought goods for cash $20, 000
Solution Capital (100, 000) + Liabilities (0) = Assets (Cash = 55,000 + Furniture = 25,000 + Goods = 20,000)
Brought goods from Mr. Nelson on credit $5,000
Solution Capital (100, 000) + Liabilities (Nelson = 5,000) = Assets (Cash = 55,000 + Furniture = 25,000 + Goods = 25,000)
Sold goods for cash for $15, 000
Capital (100,000) + Liabilities (Nelson = 5,000) = Assets (Cash = 70,000 + Furniture = 25,000 + Goods = 10,000)
Sold goods to Mr. William on credit $8,000
Solution, Capital (100,000) + Liabilities (Nelson = 5,000) = Assets (Cash = 70,000 + Furniture = 25,000 + Goods = 2,000 + William = 8,000)
Paid cash to Nelson $4,000
Solution, Capital (100,000) + Liabilities (Nelson = 1,000) = Assets (Cash = 66,000 + Furniture = 25,000 + Goods = 2,000 + William = 8,000)
Received cash from William $5,000
Solution Capital (100,000) + Liabilities (Nelson = 1,000) = Assets (Cash = 71,000 + Furniture = 25,000 + Goods = 2,000 + William = 3,000)
