Evaluate each of the following transactions in terms of their effect on assets, liabilities, and equity. 1. Receive payment of $12,000 owed by a customer 2. Borrow $65,000 from a bank What is the net change in Total Liabilities & Equity?
Transaction | Assets | = | Liabilities | + | Equity |
1 | No Effect | = | No Effect | + | No Effect |
2 | Increase | = | Increase | + | No Effect |
Net change in Total Liabilities & Equity = $65,000 increase.
Explanation:
1. Receive payment of $12,000 owed by a customer
Accounts receivable balance decreased by $12,000 & Cash balance increased by $12,000. Since assets increases & decreases at the same time, it results in the net " No Effect". Liabilities & Equity are unaffected by this transaction.
2. Borrow $65,000 from a bank.
Bank / Cash balance increased by $65,000 thus assets increases & Bank Loan account is created in liabilities side thus liabilities also increase by $65,000.
Since the liabilities increase by $65,000, the Total Liabilities & Equity will increase by $65,000.
