Balance Sheet

Cash 32900

Accounts Receivable 6300

Office Supplies 400

Prepaid Insurance 10900

Prepaid Rent 10,900

Furniture 38,700

Accumulated Depreciation-- 13100

Total Assets $ 87,000

Furniture Accounts Payable 17500

Salaries Payable 2600

Utilities Payable 1300

Interest Payable 1700

Unearned Revenue 33200

Total Liabilities $ 56,300

Common Stock 8400

Retained Earnings 22300

Owner's Equity / Retained Earnings $30,700

Total Liabilities and Owner's Equity $ 87,000

The accounting equation is

Assets= Liabilities + Owner's Equity

87,000= 56,300 + 30,700

87,000= 87000

32900+ 6300+400 + 10900+ 10900+25600 = 17500 +  2600 + 1300 + 1700 + 33200 + 8400 22300

The total of Assets of a company are always equal to the total Liabilities and Owner's Equity.

Adding the assets we get $ 87,000 which is the same as the total of Liabilities and Owner's Equity.
