Answer 1

Answer:

1. $26,400

2. $34,400

Explanation:

The closing entry for the following accounts are shown below:

1. Service fees earned A/c Dr $70,000

  Interest revenue A/c Dr        $7,000

           To Income Summary             $ 77,000

(Being revenue account closed)

2. Income summary A/c Dr $50,600

          To Depreciation Expense $8,000

          To Salaries  Expense $38,000

         To Utilities Expense $4,600

(Being expenses accounts are closed)

3. Income summary A/c Dr $26,400    ($77,000 - $50,600)

     To  K. Capri, Capital A/c         $26,400

(Being the difference is credited to the capital account)

4. K.Capri capital $12,000    

        K.Capri withdrawals $12,000

(Being K.Capri withdrawals account is recorded)

Now the balance in the income summary is shown above i.e $26,400

And, the balance of the K. Capri, Capital account would be

= Credit balance + net income - withdrawals

= $20,000 + $26,400 - $12,000

= $34,400
