    You don't need the name of the expense accounts if that is what you are meaning. You have all that you need in the question to answer it. Give it a try and we will help you from there.

    Required

    1 Write the company’s accounting equation, and label each amount as a debit or a credit.

    Debit (Dr.) Assets 22B = Credit (Cr.) Liabilities 11B + Cr. Owner’s Equity (or Shareholder’s Equity) 11B

Does net loss represent a net debit or net credit?

    Revenues 20 B
    Expenses 16 B
    Net Income = Revenue – Expenses = 4 B

    Revenues = Credit
    Expenses = Debit
    Net Income = Credit (if a net loss, would be debit balance)

    Dividends are a debit, since they come out of equity which is normally a credit. So to lower a credit, account, you debit it.
