Answer 1

Answer:

Cash 39.000 debit

  Common Stock       1,190 credit

  Additional Paid-in 37,810 credit

Equipment  7,100 debit

  Cash                  1,300 credit

  Note payable   5,800 credit

Cash    15,000 debit

 Note payable 15,000 credit

Explanation:

We debit the cash received and credit the face value of the common stock

the difference is label as additional paid-in common stock which, is also credited.

as the equipment is worth 7,100 and we paid 1,300 cash the differnece: 7,100 - 1,300 = 5,800 is the principal of the note signed

As the equipment which enters the firm is  an asset it wil lbe debited.

the cash is being used thus, credited and the note is a liability hence credit as well

the third event consist of a inflow of cash thus debit and taking a liability therefore, credit.
