*Cash = 79500 + 53500 – 45450 = 87550

Receivables = 48500 + 48400 = 96900

Trademarks = 478000 + 294000 = 772000

Record Music Catalog = 923000 + 256000 = 1179000

Equipment = 324000 + 137000 = 461000

Accounts Payable = 144000 + 40500 = 184500

Notes Payable = 409000+63900 = 472900

Common Stock = 400000 + (19336 * 4) = 477344

Additional Paid in Capital = 30000 + (19336 * 46) – 45450 = 874006
