NOTE: The two sides of the balance sheet (assets and liabilities) will be solved separately one after the other.
Assets:
Total Current Assets = Cash and Equivalent + Accounts Receivable + Inventories = $ 5625
Cash and Equivalent + 844 + 2475 = 5625
Cash and Equivalent = 5625 - 844 - 2475 = $ 2306
Total Currrent Assets + Net Plant and Equipment = Total Assets 5625 + Net Plant and Equipment = $ 12500
Net Plant and Equipment = 12500 - 5625 = $ 6875
Liabilities and Shareholders Equity:
Total Current Liabilities = Accounts Payable + Accruals + Notes Paybale = 0 + 117 + 664 = $ 781
Total Common Equity = Common Stock + Retained Earnings
9375 = 6094 + Retained Earnings
Retained Earnings = 9375 - 6094 = $ 3281
