Answer 1

Answer:

Anderson Cleaning​ Service's liabilities were $2,160

Explanation:

Basing on accounting equation:

Total asset = Liabilities + Owner's (or Stockholders') Equity

Liabilities = Total asset - Owner's (or Stockholders') Equity

At the end of a recent​ year, Anderson Cleaning​ Service had total assets of $5,810 and equity of $3,650

Anderson Cleaning​ Service's liabilities = Total asset - Equity  = $5,810 - $3,650 = $2,160
