Answer 1

Answer:

December 31 2014, cash = $486,000

Explanation:

To solve this, we will classify the particulars as either income or expenditure,and find the difference. This is shown below:

Particulars                          income($)                 expenditure($)

operating activities            531,000                     -

investing activities             -                                  963,000

financing activities             585,000                    -

January 1 cash balance     333,000                     -

Total                                   1,449,000                  963,000

∴ net cash available on December 31 2014 = Total income - expenditure

= 1,449,000 - 963,000 = $486,000
