    Balance sheet
    This should be simple, but for some reason my balance sheet is not even close to matching. I am not sure what I am missing. Here is the list of accounts we are to use:

    Account name Amount
    Cash 1,322
    Inventories 2,550
    Net A/R 22,345
    Prepaid expenses 3,889

    PP& E (Plant, Property & Equipment) 118,702
    Accumulated depreciation 44,304

    Accounts payable 728
    Salaries & withholdings payable 4,249
    Notes payable 1,177
    Current portion of long term debt 2,100
    Long term debt, less current portion 15,100

    Inpatient services 93,965
    Outpatient services 105,365
    Revenue deductions 49,771

    Salary & wages 71,188
    Employee benefits 11,520
    Physician fees 3,893
    Supplies 24,285
    Repairs & maintenance 2,250
    Depreciation 8,496
    Insurances 2,870
    Utilities 2,302
    Other 10,748

    As you can see there are no accounts that would be used under the balance sheet as retained earrings or stockholders equity. Therefore, that section is missing in my portion, but the above list is all the teacher gave us. Below is what I have so far, which I think is right for the assets, but I have to be missing something in the liabilities.


    Assets:

    Cash 1,322
    Inventories 2,550
    Net A/R 22,345
    Prepaid expenses 3,889

    Total Assets: 30,106


    PP& E :

    PP& E (Plant, Property & Equipment) 118,702
    Accumulated depreciation (44,304)

    Total PP&E: 74,398

    Total Current Assets: 104,504


    Liabilities:

    Accounts payable 728
    Salaries & withholdings payable 4,249
    Notes payable 1,177
    Current portion of long term debt 2,100
    Long term debt, less current portion 15,100

    Total Liabilities: 23,354


    I'd really appreciate any help! Thanks!

    Retained Earnings:

    Beginning Balance
    +Net Income
    -Dividends
    =Ending Balance

    You can't do a Balance Sheet without having done the income statement and statement of retained earnings first. Or at least doing the math portion so that you have the numbers needed.
