    Accounting Question Help?
    So, I have two different answers to this question:
    All sizes | . | Flickr - Photo Sharing!

    First possible answer:
    a. Current assets
    Accounts receivable 11300
    Prepaid insurance 4000
    Supplies on hand 3900
    Total 19200

    b. Current liabilities
    A/P 29000
    Interest payable 12000
    Notes payable 13500
    Wages payable 10000
    Total 64,500

    c. Property, plant and equipment
    Buildings 35000
    Equipment 45000
    Land 40000
    Total 120,000

    d. Total assets
    A/R 11300
    d. Accum Deprec 19500
    e. Building 35000
    f. Cash 31000
    g. Equipment 45000
    h. Land 40000
    I. Inventory 52400
    j. Prepaid insurance 4000
    k. Supplies on hand 3900
    l. Trademarks 6000
    m. Total assets 248100

    n. Long term liabilities
    Notes payable, long term 33,500
    Total: 33,500

    o. Total liabilities:
    p. A/P 29000
    q. Interest payable 12000
    r. Notes payable 13500
    s. Wages payable 10000
    Long term notes 33,500
    Total: 98,000
    Total stockholder’s equity
    Total assets: 248100
    Total liabilities: (98,000)
    Total stockholder equity: 150,100

    Total liabilities and stockholder’s equity
    Total liabilities 98000
    Total SH equity 150,100
    Total: 248,100 (which we know is correct, because total assets MUST equal total liabilities + stockholder equity).

    Second possible answer:
    Answer Formula
    a.       Current assets 102,600 = B3+B6+B12+B15+B17
    b.      Current liabilities 64,500 = B2+B10+B13+B20
    c.       Property, plant, and equipment 106,500 = B5-B4+B9+B11+B18
    d.      Total assets 209,100 = E2+E4
    e.      Long-term liabilities 33,500 = B14
    f.        Total liabilities 98,000 = E6+E3
    g.       Total stockholder’s equity 111,100 = B16+B7
    h.      Total liabilities and stockholders’ equity 209,100 = E8+E7

    Which one looks correct to you?

    Cash is a current asset

    Trademark is an intangible asset

    Accumulated Depreciation is a contra asset, which means it offsets an asset. This means that you will list the asset and list the accumulated depreciation and subtract the accumulated depreciation from the asset to get the net value of the asset. The asset will be Equipment.

    Inventory is a current asset.

    The rest of your accounts are classified correctly.
