15,000                                                                       1,500

                                                                                  15,000

                                                                                  16,500

2. Issue $85,000 in stock

Cash                                                 Paid-In Capital

debit                credit                       debit                credit

3. Borrow $63,000 from a bank

Cash                                                 Debt

debit                credit                       debit                credit

94,700                                                                      2,900

63,000                                                                    63,000

157,700                                                                    65,900

4. Pay $5,000 owed to a supplier

Cash                                                 Accounts payable

debit                credit                       debit                credit

157,700                                                                     16,500

                        5,000                      5,000                          

152,700                                                                     11,500

5. Receive payment of $12,000 owed by a customer

Cash                                                 Accounts receivable

152,700                                            4,500                        

12,000                                                                     12,000

164,700                                                                     7,500

Due to some strange reason, accounts receivable has a debit balance (= $4,500 - $12,000). Since that is not possible, the remaining part $7,500 must be included under unearned revenue:

Accounts receivable                       Unearned revenue

debit                credit                       debit                credit

                        7,500                                               0                        

7,500                                                                       7,500

0                        0                                                      7,500
