Use
the accounting equation to answer each question below.
1.
At the beginning of the year, Gilbert Company Assets
were $180,000, and its stockholder’s equity was $100,000. During the year

2.
At the beginning of the year, Sallor Company had
Liabilities of $50,000 and Stockholder’s equity of $48,000. If assets increased
by $20,000 and liabilities decreased by $15,000. What was Stockholder’s equity
at the end of year?
Answer:
1.
Assets = Liabilities + Stockholder’s
Equity
Beginning of
year $180,000 80,000 100,000
Increasing 60,000 10,000 50,000
Ending of year 240,000 90,000 150,000
So stockholder’s equity at
the end of year is $150,000 .
2.
Assets = Liabilities + Stockholder’s
equity
Beginning of
year $98,000 50,000 48,000
Increasing 20,000 (15,000) 35,000
Ending of year 118,000 35,000 83,000
So stockholder’s equity at the
end of year is $83,000
