evablogger [386]

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

In simple words, Bank runs refers to the scenario  when a significant amount of individuals begin to make bank withdrawals since they are afraid the organizations will run out of liquidity. Usually a run on the banks is the product of confusion instead of a true bankruptcy.

 Bank run caused by panic that drives a bank into real bankruptcy provides a traditional example of a prediction that fulfills itself. The institution does defaults risk, as customers are continuing to withdraw money. So what starts out as fear will ultimately turn into some kind of true fallback situation.

<em>New Buy</em>

Explanation:

A new buy <em>is a situation that requires an item to be purchased for the very first time. </em>

Tamiku [17]

Answer:

Assets =  $66,974

Liabilities = $0

Equity = $66,974

Explanation:

Assets

Assets are resources that are controlled by the business, which generate economic benefits.

Total Assets = Non-Current Assets + Current Assets

where,

<u>Non-Current Assets :</u>

Office Equipment                        $ 10,000

Computer Equipment                 $20,000

Total Non-Current Assets           $30,000

<u>Current Assets :</u>

Cash                                             $15,000

Accounts receivable                    $12,882

Computer supplies                        $2,545

Prepaid insurance                        $3,220

Prepaid rent                                  $3.300

Total Current Assets                   $36,947

Total Assets                                 $66,974

Liabilities

Liabilities are present obligations of the business that result in outflow of economic resources.

Total Liabilities = Non-Current Liabilities + Current Liabilities  

where,

Non-Current Liabilities = $0

Current Liabilities         = $0

Total Liabilities             = $0

Equity

Is the residue of what is left when Liabilities are deducted from the Assets

Total Equity = Total Assets - Total Liabilities

                    = $66,974 - $0

                    = $66,974
