Answer 1

Answer and Explanation:

The indication of the account, amount and the direction of the effect are as follows

As we know that

Accounting equation is

Total assets = Total liabilities + stockholder equity

Based on this, the indication and the direction aare as follows

        Assets                  =              Liabilities            +            Stockholders' Equity

A)        $13,000              =                   0                    +                 $13,000

It increased both the assets and the stockholder equity i.e capital

B)        $10,000                 =                $10,000        +                     0

It increased both the assets and the liabilities

C)       $1,100                   =                $1,100                +                     0

It increased both the assets and the liabilities

D)    +$18,000 -$1,600       =             $16,400            +                     0

It increased the land by $18,000 and decreased the cash by $1,600 and at the same time it increased the liabilities by $16,400

E)      +$6,000 -$1,600      =                  $4,400              +                    0          

It increased the equipment by $6,000 and decreased the cash by $1,600 and at the same time it also increased the liabilities by $4,400

Total   $44,900                 =                  $31,900              +                 $13,000
