Option (ii)
Let's analyze each transaction step by step:
-
Paid a note payable $35,000 (no interest was paid): This reduces both assets (cash) and liabilities (note payable) by $35,000. Assets: $350,000 - $35,000 = $315,000 Liabilities: $X - $35,000 = $X - $35,000
-
Collected an Accounts receivable, $45,000: This increases cash and reduces an asset (accounts receivable). Assets: $315,000 + $45,000 = $360,000 Liabilities remain the same: $X - $35,000
-
Paid an Accounts payable, $33,000: This reduces cash and liabilities (accounts payable). Assets: $360,000 - $33,000 = $327,000 Liabilities: $X - $35,000 - $33,000 = $X - $68,000
-
Purchased a truck for $37,500 financed by cash $7,500 and a Motor Vehicle Loan $30,000: This reduces cash by $7,500 and increases liabilities by $30,000. Assets: $327,000 - $7,500 = $320,500 Liabilities: $X - $68,000 + $30,000 = $X + $12,000
Now, we need to calculate the new Shareholders' Equity, which remains unchanged as no profit or loss has been generated from these transactions.
So, the new financial position is:
Assets: $320,500 Liabilities: $X + $12,000 Shareholders' Equity: $170,000
Since we don't have the initial value of liabilities ($X), we cannot determine the exact amount for liabilities. However, we can confirm that Shareholders' Equity remains at $170,000, which corresponds to option (ii).
