Michael Barry, Attorney, P.C. began the year with total assets of $126,000, liabilities of $74,000, and stockholders’ equity of
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

amid [387]

Answer:

Both parties experience surplus, but there is inequity because Steve has a much larger producer surplus

Explanation:

The options to this question wasn't provided. Here are the options : Both parties experience surplus, but there is inequity because Steve has a much larger producer surplus. Both parties experience surplus, so the transaction was equitable. Only Steve benefits from the sale. Srivani will not be happy with her purchase.

Consumer surplus is the difference between the willingness to pay of a consumer and the price of the good.

Producer surplus is the difference between the price of a good and the least amount the seller is willing to sell his good.

While both parties earn a surplus, the producer surplus exceeds the consumer surplus . Therefore, the seller benefited more from the trade than the consumer.

NeX [460]

The net income is $32,961

<u>Explanation</u>:

To calculate the net income, we will classify the transaction into income and expenses, and compute the difference between their totals;

Income;

Merchandise inventory Sept. 1     =  $  7,740

Merchandise inventory Sept. 30  = $ 11,372

                                         Sales     =  $ 50,575

                                        Total      =  $ 69,687

Expenses;

Purchases                             = $ 33,114

Selling expenses                  = $     677

Administrative expense       = $     665

Rent Revenue                       = $    1,118

Interest expense                  = $     1,152

Total                                      = $  36,726

Net income = Total income - Total expenses

                    = 69,687 - 36,716

                    = $ 32,961
