Answer:

$2800

Explanation:

To find the Gain or loss on the sell of shares we jus need to deduct cost of purchasing and brokerage fee from sale proceeds

12 DECEMBER 2019

Gain/loss = Sales proceeds- Total Cost to purchase - Cost to sell

Gain/loss= ($88 x 265) - $20,305 - $215

Gain/loss= $23,320 - $20,305 - $215

Gain/loss= $2800

WORKINGS

Purchase 1 Jan 2019

265shares x $76per share =  $20,140

Total cost to purchase = $20,140 + $165(brokerage fee)

Total cost to purchase =  $20,305

Cost to sell = $215(brokerage fee)

goldenfox [79]

Answer:

The expenses can be recorded as follows;

Debit to the expenses of $33,000 and a credit to the cash account of $33,000.

Explanation:

The accounting equation is an equation that tends to balance a company's assets on one side and the sum of its liabilities and shareholders equity on the opposite side of the equation. It form the basis for the double-entry system in accounting that includes an accounts debit and credit. The debit is a sum to an amount that is owed, it is usually listed on the left hand-side of an account while the credit is a listing of a sum that is received usually on the right hand side of an account.

In the case of Michael Barry, the accounting equation;

Assets=liabilities+stockholders equity

Assets=$126,000

Liabilities=$74,000

Stockholders equity=$52,000

liabilities+stockholders equity=74,000+52,000=$126,000

The assets equals the sum of the liabilities and stockholders equity.

To record expenses paid of $33,000;

                            Debit           Credit

Expenses          $33,000

Cash                                       $33,000
