INTRODUCTION
Assets =
Liability +
Stockholders’ equity
The following illustration expands this equation to show the accounts that comprise stock- holders’
equity. In addition, the debit or credited rules and effects on each type of account are illustrated. The
expanded basic equation helps to understand the fundamentals of the double- entry system. Like the
basic equation, the expanded basic equation must be in balance (total debits equal total credits)

Assets, liabilities, and capital
Assets are the properties owned by a business enterprise and equities refer to the rights or claims to the
properties. If the assets owned by a business amount to Br. 50, 000 the equities amounted to Br.50, 000,
and the relationship between the two may be stated in the form of an equation, as follows.
Assets = equities
Equities may be subdivided in the two principal types:the rights of creditors and the rights of owners’.
Liabilities refer to the equities of creditors or debts of the business and capital refers to the equity of the
owners. Expansion of the equation to give recognition to the two basic types of equities yields the
following, which is known as the accounting equations.
It is customary to place “liabilities” before “capital” in the accounting equation because creditors have
preferential rights to the assets. The residual claim of the owner or owners is called owner’s equity and
is given greater emphasis by transposing liabilities to the other side of the equation, yielding:

Perez Inc. next transaction is to purchase land as a future building site, for which Br. 7, 500 in cash is

suppliers, agreeing to pay in the near future. This type of transaction is called a purchase on
account and the liability created is termed as account payable. Consumable goods purchased,
such as supplies, are considered to be prepaid expenses, or assets. The effect is to increase assets
and liabilities by Br. 850, as follows.
The principal objective of the owner of a business enterprise is to increase capital through earnings. For
Perez Income to means that the cash and other assets acquired through the sale of taxi services must be
greater than the cost of the gasoline and other supplies used, the wages of drivers, the rent, and all of
the other expenses of operating the business.

or business services, fees earned for charges by physician to patients, rent earned for the use of
real estate or other property, and fees earned for Perez income.

Income statement:It is the summary of the revenue and the expense of a business entity for a
specific period of time, such as a month or a year. Revenue earned and expanses incurred during
the month were recorded in the equation as increases and decrease in capital respectively.
The excess of the revenue over the expense incurred in earning the revenue is called net income
or net profit. If the expenses of the enterprise exceed the revenue the result is loss. It is ordinary
imposable to determine the exact amount of expense incurred in connection with each revenue
transaction. Therefore, it is considered satisfactory to determine the net income or the net loss for
a year, rather than for each sale or small group of sales.

Solution
1. Assets – liabilities = owner’s equity (M.A margin, capital)
Br. 15, 500- Br. 2, 030= owner’s equity (M.A margin, capital)
Br.13470= owner’s equity (M.A margin, capital)
Assets = liability + owners equity
Cash + A/R + supplies + land = Acc. Payable M.A Morgen capital
