In this paper, in addition to presenting the computed answers, please also discuss how you arrived at each answers the accounting problem asks. The accounting problem presents a company’s balance sheet and income statement. The Diamond Gem Cleaning and Maintenance Service Company is in the business of contracting its cleaning and maintenance services to office buildings. The balance sheet and income statement have blank lines. Determine the values that would be appropriate for each blank line. Provide a narrative of how you arrived at each value. In doing so, explain the account being valued and its relationship to the other financial data. For example, if the accounts payable line was missing, explain that you can derive its value based on knowing all the other values of the current liabilities section. Then explain what an account liability is, as well as why it would belong in the current liabilities section of the balance sheet
