Answer 1

Answer:

The balance of the equation at end of year 2 is$388,800

The balance of the equation at end of year 3 is   $417,600

Explanation:

                           Assets                        =Liabilities          +shareholders' equity

                    Land +cash                           Bonds payable     retained earnings

1/1/year 2                   $360,000                  =$360,000

1/1/year 2 $360,000 ($360,000)                

31/12/year2                $53,500                         =                                     $53,500

31/12/year2              ($28,800)                      =                                      ($28,800)                          

Balance                              $388,800          =                                       $388,800

Opening balance                $388,800=                                              $388,800

31/12/year3                            $53,500=                                               $53,500

31/12/year3                           ($28,800)=                                              ($28,800)                                

Balance                               $ 417,600                                                $417,600

                                             

The interest on bond=$360,000*8%=$28,800
