a. Utilities Expense 500
Cash 500
Explanation:
Given: Consulting immediately paid $500 cash for utilities.
As $500 cash been paid for utility expenses.
We know the golden rule of accounting transaction:
- Personal accounts: Debit the receiver, credit the giver.
- Impersonal real account: Debit what comes in, credit what goes out.
- Impersonal Nominal account: Debit all expenses and losses, credit all profit and gains.
Paid for utility expense of firm is not the personal account, however, it is impersonal account. In the given case, cash is going out of business.
Therefore, Debit all expense and losses and credit what goes out of business.
Journal Entry of the transaction:

Credit cash account--- $500
Alright, so we start out with $12000, and we'd add from there. Since we add 1$ for every passenger, our equation with p being the number of passengers would be 1*p (e.g. for 1 passenger we have 1*1=1, 2 passengers we have 1+1(2 times)=2). Substituting 50,000 for p, we have 1*50,000=50,000. Next, we have to add 12,000 to that (as that's a flat fee) to get 50000+12000=62000
