Answer:
1. Determine the amount of owner’s equity (Cecil Jameson’s capital) as of July 1, 2007.
equity = assets - liabilities = $15,050 - $1,530 = $13,520
2. State the assets, liabilities, and owner’s equity as of July 1 in equation form similar to that shown in this chapter. In tabular form below the equation, indicate the increases and decreases resulting from each transaction and the new balances after each transaction.
since there is not enough room here, I used an excel spreadsheet
3. Prepare an income statement for July, a statement of owner’s equity for July, and a balance sheet as of July 31, 2007.
